Which Premier League team is worth the most?
In terms of market value, Manchester City lead the way, with a squad worth more than most other teams can dream of. The club also leads in terms of brand value, having overtaken city rivals Manchester United in recent years.
Which Big Five league generates the most revenue?
 The Premier League is part of the Big Five, a term which refers to the top tier football leagues of England, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France. Together, the leagues generated 17.24 billion euros in revenue in the 2021/22 season, with the Premier League generating around 6.4 billion euros alone.
