Cincinnati Bengals, NFL’s Lowest Valued Franchise, Outvalues Premier League Giants Arsenal & Chelsea: Here’s How
At the top of the financial game for 2024 sits the NFL, shining brighter than soccer in terms of cash flow. Thanks to its massive fan following, especially in the US and Canada, the league enjoys a solid viewership base. The big bucks roll in mainly from deals with TV giants like ESPN, Fox, and NBC. Spread among its 32 teams, the NFL’s revenue pie is pretty hefty, fueled further by its ownership of 29 of the world’s most expensive stadiums.
And get this – even the humble Cincinnati Bengals, the league’s least valuable team, outshines heavyweights like Arsenal and Chelsea in terms of value. Talk about financial muscle!
The Bengals’ financial triumph
Despite being the NFL’s least valuable team, the Cincinnati Bengals are punching above their weight compared to Premier League giants like Chelsea and Arsenal. With an operating income of $104 million, they surpass Chelsea’s $35 million. This can be attributed to their focus solely on player wages without the burden of transfer expenses. As in the Premier League, Chelsea and Arsenal have to spend money to pay and acquire players.
The NFL’s whopping advertisement revenue, estimated between $5 billion to $6 billion, dwarfs that of the Premier League. This reflects its superior financial prowess. This difference is starkly evident in the value-to-revenue multiple, where the NFL outshines the Premier League, as reported by Sportico. These numbers highlight how the Bengals, despite their lower valuation, showcase the NFL’s dominance over even the biggest names in soccer.
