Newcastle United owners’ staggering £489bn ‘net worth’ as club publish financial results

Newcastle United have posted their results for the financial year ending June 30 2024. The club recorded a loss of £11.1m, despite playing in the Champions League for the first time in two decades.

They were also forced to sell Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson in that time to ensure they did not fail PSR and risk a Premier League points deduction. The sale of Allan Saint-Maximin to Al-Ahli was also recorded in these financial results.

Whilst the club have passed PSR for another season, they have had to endure three very quiet transfer windows with minimal first-team signings during that period. Miguel Almiron and Lloyd Kelly’s departures to Atlanta United and Juventus will be included in next year’s financial results, as will any signings they make before June 30 2025.

Newcastle United’s financial results

Revenue was up by £70m whilst commercial income increased to £83.6m. Newcastle United’s wages to turnover ratio also decreased slightly in that time period, which is good news for UEFA competitions whose rules are slightly different to the Premier League’s and will punish clubs whose turnover to wages ratio is too high.

Despite having some of the world’s wealthiest owners, the Magpies’ spending has been measured in recent seasons, but these most recent financial results could usher in a big spending summer spree. Here, we take a look at the reported net worth of all 20 Premier League club owners. Note, all figures have been taken from a wide range of sources.
