Ten Premier League clubs announce their accumulated losses.
Ten Premier League clubs have reported cumulative losses over four consecutive seasons, while six clubs have recorded cumulative profits.
According to the specialized sports economics platform, citing Fars, one of the stated goals of issuing professional licenses to clubs in the Premier League is to reduce accumulated losses and increase the profitability of football clubs.
However, the most important long-term goal of issuing professional licenses is to reduce clubs' dependence on parent companies, so that they can generate at least 40 percent of their expenses through football revenues.
Over the past four seasons, up to July 2026, when clubs submitted their financial documents, 10 clubs had accumulated losses, while 6 clubs had accumulated profits.
The accumulated losses of Premier League clubs over four consecutive seasons have been on an upward trend, as shown below. This is despite efforts by the Football Federation and the Professional Licensing Committee to halt this trend.
2022: Accumulated loss of 840 billion tomans
2023: Accumulated loss of 1,700 billion tomans
2024: Accumulated loss of 2,138 billion tomans
2025: Accumulated loss of 3,136 billion tomans
End of message.
