The club’s report also highlights its significant income from player trading. City recorded a profit of £67.7million from transfers, a figure they expect to increase for the current season, which takes them to £250million profit over the past five years.
City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak said: “The statistics and results show that in many ways we are beginning to achieve our long-term ambition. As the 2021-22 season ended, our men’s team, under Pep Guardiola’s stewardship, lifted the Premier League trophy for the fourth time in five years; our youth teams won the U18 league titles and the Premier League 2 for the second successive year.
“A clean sweep of Premier League titles two years in a row. In addition, our women’s team qualified for the Champions League for the seventh successive season. Over the summer, seven City players went on to lift the UEFA Women’s EURO 2022 trophy.
“Important off-field metrics also gave us the right indications. Our motivation to place the COVID-19 pandemic firmly behind us helped our talented people achieve the most successful financial year in the Club’s history; the best players in world football are making us their destination of choice; our player trading was executed with great skill and positive financial outcomes, and our commercial partnerships continued to deepen and expand by geography and sector.”
Ferran Soriano, City’s chief executive officer, added: “From a business perspective, this was the first season in which we could begin to put the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic behind us, and we did it breaking Club records for both revenues and profits.
“Our strong revenue performance was due to multiple factors, but ultimately driven by the ‘beautiful football’ we play and the continuous fan growth that it generates; more fans, more audiences, more people in the stadium, and more partners that want to be commercially associated with Manchester City.”
