PSG post record revenue of €837 million | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain announced this Tuesday (28th) that it recorded a record revenue of 837 million euros (R$ 5.23 billion at the current exchange rate) in the fiscal year 2024-25, figures that place it on the same level as the biggest clubs in Europe, despite playing in a stadium considered “small” to sustain its growth.

“It is a historic season from a sporting and economic perspective,” celebrated PSG in a statement, the Champions League winner in May.

Millionaire Revenues

The achievements of the club, acquired by Qatar Sports Investments in 2011, have allowed it to raise its revenues to 367 million euros (R$ 2.2 million), especially thanks to the increasingly numerous sponsors (31) and record sales of its official products.

Matchday revenues – ticket sales, food, etc. – increased to 175 million euros (around R$ 1 billion).

With 837 million euros in revenue (excluding player sales), above the 806 million euros (R$ 5 billion) from the previous year, the Parisian club manages to sit at the same table as the European giants.

Still far from Real Madrid (1.045 billion euros, or R$ 6.540 billion, according to the Deloitte 2023-24 ranking), PSG appears on par with Manchester City (837.8 million euros, R$ 5.24 billion).

“The goal is to become the world's leading sports and entertainment franchise,” declared the French club.

Reduction in Wage Bill

PSG also reduced its wage bill to comply with financial fair play rules, especially with the departures of Neymar, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappé.

But this prosperity is not reflected in all accounting aspects. Revenues from the Champions League and the Club World Cup contrast with the drop in broadcasting rights (-30%) and ticket sales with no growth margin.

To continue increasing its revenue and fan base, PSG wants to change its “home,” as the Parc des Princes, with a capacity for 48,000 people, has become too small.

“We currently compete with Europe's biggest in a smaller stadium. We need to innovate to keep growing,” indicated the club.
