A new report from Deloitte shows that the combined revenues of the Premier League’s clubs rose by 29 percent in 2013/14 to £3.3bn.
This is £1bn more than Germany's Bundesliga which makes the second most - and greater than the combined revenues of Spain and Italy's top-flights.
In fact, TV income alone at €171m is more than the total earnings of Spanish clubs.
The Premier League made pre-tax profits of £187m, its first profit since 1999, with 15 of the league's 20 clubs returning profits.
Broadcasting revenue accounted for 54 percent of the league’s total revenue - and that’s before the latest lucrative deal with Sky and BT, which will increase this revenue stream by 70 percent.
TV stations will effectively pay £12m per match from the 2016-17 season.
Individual club revenues ranged from £433m for Manchester Utd at the top to Cardiff City – which was then a Premier League club – at the bottom with £83bn.
Deloitte describes the gap between The Premier League and The Championship as "alarming" - clubs in that league ended 2013-14 with an overall loss of £247m, an average of more than €10m per club.
