On a commercial level, the Premier League is ranked No. 1 in the world, which is the consensus of everyone, especially in terms of TV broadcast share, the Premier League beats La Liga. On December 29, La Liga announced the broadcast revenue of each team in the 2022-23 season, except for Real Madrid and Barcelona, 18 teams in La Liga were left behind by the Premier League.
According to data released by La Liga, the 20 teams in La Liga in the 2022-23 season shared 1.525 billion euros in TV broadcast revenue. Allocation is based on the following principles:
Half of the 1.525 billion euros, evenly distributed among the 20 teams, each with about 38.13 million euros.
The remaining 762.5 million euros will be further distributed, with a portion of the prize money based on the results of the past five seasons and a portion of the club's "social contribution", including factors such as attendance and the club's promotion of La Liga.
Real Madrid was the club with the highest broadcast share in La Liga in 2022-23, with 161 million euros, followed by Barcelona with 160 million euros.
Real Madrid and Barcelona were followed by Atletico Madrid, which received 119 million euros in broadcast shares. Apart from these three teams, no other team has reached 100 million euros in broadcast revenue. Real Sociedad, who finished fourth in La Liga last season, received a share of 65.14 million euros, almost half of Atletico Madrid.
The vast majority of teams have broadcast revenue between 45 million and 65 million. Espanyol, who were relegated from La Liga last season, received 50.64 million euros, and Elche, who were relegated from the bottom, received 44.77 million euros.
In terms of the comparison of TV broadcast shares, La Liga is completely beaten by the Premier League.
In the 2022-23 Premier League season, Manchester City's TV broadcast revenue was 170 million pounds, nearly 200 million euros, which did not leave Real Madrid and Barcelona too far. However, the share of the middle and lower teams is truly common prosperity: Southampton, which is relegated in 20th place, has a TV broadcast share of 128 million pounds, equivalent to 147 million euros, which is basically the level of Real Madrid and Barcelona. The point of the relegation team Bournemouth is 139 million pounds, which is equivalent to 160 million euros, the same as Barcelona!
In other words, except for Real Madrid and Barcelona who can barely break hands with La Liga, the broadcast share of the remaining 18 teams in La Liga was mercilessly beaten by the Premier League. When the new broadcast contract of the Premier League is implemented in the 2025-26 season, the broadcast revenue of 6.7 billion pounds in four years will make the Premier League far ahead and continue to throw off La Liga......
