Manchester City Beat Manchester United to Title of England's Most Valuable Club

Manchester City have usurped crosstown rivals Manchester United as the Premier League's most valuable club, breaking the £2bn barrier.

Despite the Red Devils also crossing the £2bn mark, the 2017/18 English champions beat out their Manchester counterparts by almost £275m, according to a report from the University of Liverpool's Centre for Sports Business.

As revealed by Sports Pro Media, the Citizens posted a value of £2.364bn, comfortably beating out United for top place, even with their £90m increase in revenue from last season.

After finally unveiling their new self-titled stadium in north London, Tottenham Hotspur grabbed third place behind the two Manchester sides thanks to their dramatic increase in match day revenue following their time at Wembley Stadium.
