Money runs football more than ever, but most fans don’t see what’s really happening behind the scenes. 💰⚽️

I break down FFP, transfer spending & the financial side of football in simple terms. Follow for daily insights & deep dives.📈

@RecursiveChange @ellis_platten Well… exactly. Prior to Amorim, you could argue the pair could have been worth at least £50m each. Whether the value of them has now declined is another questions.

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

@mattstannard @IpswichTown Not right! The amount of money fans pay to watch the games, especially with the disappointment in majority of the results this year…

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

Crystal Palace will receive a nice boost in revenue from qualifying for the Europa League next season!✅💰 Prize money from winning FA Cup around £2M too!🏆

Nothing against the penalty decision there, could have gone either way - just always wondered this recently.

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

I do find it slightly odd that whenever the referee goes to the VAR monitor, it’s almost guaranteed to change their mind on the original decision 🤔 #MCIAVL

@Fire_and_Skill @EddNorval @JoshBland13 @Michaeldwood74 @NorritoAlessio Very interesting work! I spoke about the importance of intangibles when looking at finance in football in my dissertation. These factors may be difficult to directly quantify but they are certainly relevant !

The transformation is real! 📊🔥
From profit-obsessed business to ambitious football club:

£305 million spent on transfers since takeover
CC WIN!🏆
Two major finals in 3 years
Training ground transformed
Club valuation tripled

The price of ambition vs. the cost of stagnation...

Following on from Newcastle United's recent Carabao Cup win, let's take a look at the state of the club before the Saudi takeover... 💰⚽ #FootballFinance #NUFC #Newcastle

The harsh reality for Toon Army fans: 💔

Commercial revenue remained stagnant for years
St. James Park left unchanged while other clubs modernized
Ashley's self-sustaining model kept the club debt-free but competitive ambition was ZERO
Top players regularly sold to balance books

Clubs don’t learn, Kean was not suited to the Premier League - some players just aren’t! And that’s not a problem!

[Transfer News Live @DeadlineDayLive]

🚨 Arsenal, Newcastle and West Ham are all interested in Moise Kean and the Fiorentina striker has a €52m release clause for clubs outside of Italy.

Forests Financial Fortune? If Nottingham Forest qualify for the Champions League, their finances will be boosted massively!

How much could they earn? Let’s have a look…🧵

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

In total, a group-stage exit could still earn Forest €50M+, while a deep run could exceed €100M! 💰

That’s game-changing revenue which would allow them to make a few key summer signings! Can they secure UCL football? 👀⬇️ #NFFC #nottinghamforest

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

Forest would receive:
•€18.64M just for group stage qualification
•€2.8M per win, €930K per draw
•€5-€36M from UEFA’s ‘value pillar’ (based on historical ranking)
•Market pool & matchday revenue boost - around £1-2m per Matchday!

@CWeatherspoon_ @TheAthleticFC What an opporunity! Congratulations! This football finance space is growing and more casual fans seem to be interested in the financial side of the game with the impact of FFP on club's transfer spending! Part of the reason why I started this page myself a year ago...

[Football Finance Analyst @FinFootyAnalyst]

A reminder the the winner of the Carabao Cup final nets ONLY £200,000 in prize money!❌💰💰

Robert Sanchez is comical.

Wesley Fofana has been MASSIVELY missed from this Chelsea side.
