I have always heard that football is big business. Alot of money is flowing into football clubs in terms of Television rights and sponsorship. Then I came across the following question:-
Q: How do you make a small fortune investing in football?
A: Start with a large fortune.
It would be a ridiculous idea to invest your money in football if you are looking to make a profit. The model is a failure as even success can’t guarantee profitability. Just look at the financial books of the so called successful football clubs, Liverpool, Manchester united, Real Madrid, Barcelona, & AC Milan. The profits are not there, players’ salary is ridiculous and cost of running the business is too high to be profitable. Even for clubs that report abook profit, deduct interest payments + annual loan payments and the club is money loser
People making Money In Football
The happiest people in football are the banks. They are making millions in interest payments. Another group making money is any Pay TV company that a significant monopoly on rights.
If you want a piece of football money maybe you should be looking into bank shares or Pay T.V. shares.
