Man City lead Premier League title race as Liverpool move to second<\/h3>\n

Manchester City are closing in on Real Madrid as the biggest hitters in world football after posting record revenues and profits from their treble-winning season. The Premier League winners recorded record revenues of \u00a3712million and profits of \u00a380m driven by their success on three fronts culminating in the Champions League in Istanbul in June.<\/p>\n

It puts them within touching distance of Real who sit on top of the football world with \u00a3137m profits from \u00a3733m revenue for the same period. Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak vowed City would not rest until they had reached even greater heights despite their best season on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIn the aftermath of the Champions League win in Turkey and the completion of the treble the question I was asked most was how do you top that? The answer is by doubling down on proven philosophies and practices that have brought us this success and to challenge ourselves to continue to constantly innovate in order to achieve new levels of performance both on and off the field.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuccess today simply means further investment for tomorrow. Our financial health and on field success mean everyone connected at Manchester City can look forward to the future with excitement. Our collective achievements give me huge confidence that together we can accomplish even more in the years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

The numbers City\u2019s financial report posted were impressive with a \u00a3100million leap in revenue to \u00a3712.8 million and a near doubling of profits from \u00a341.7m to \u00a380.4m. Those jumps saw them not only close the gap on Real Madrid as the biggest club in the world but put clear water between them and neighbours Manchester United who had posted a Premier League record figure of \u00a3648.4m for the same period last month.<\/p>\n

City\u2019s figures were boosted by broadcast revenue which leapt to just shy of \u00a3300m as Guardiola\u2019s side competed all the way in two Cup competitions and took a third successive Premier League trophy. That success saw a wage bill increase from \u00a3308m to \u00a3368m on account of the treble triggering bonus and performance related payments to players and management.<\/p>\n
