"Some of the richest clubs in women's football saw their revenues increase by 35% last year, with Arsenal generating the largest revenue in Europe for the first time since Deloitte began charting the top earners in the women's game. The north London side had revenues of 25.6m (22.2m), narrowly overtaking Chelsea, thanks largely to their 7m of matchday revenue, which was nearly twice as much as anyone else, boosted by their move to play all of their home league fixtures at the Emirates Stadium."
"Chelsea, meanwhile, brought in by far the highest commercial revenue, 19.1m, of the top 15 clubs included, through partnerships. However, Deloitte's list does not include any American NWSL clubs, or any clubs from Australia or Sweden, as the relevant data was not available. Most of Europe was included, however, along with Brazil and Japan, with the Japanese side Sanfrecce Hiroshima Regina raising the 14th-highest revenue of the clubs featured. It is the fourth year in which Deloitte has profiled 15 of the world's leading revenue-generating women's clubs, and the first time those clubs had recorded average revenues above 10m per club. Women's Super League clubs dominate the list."
"Vivianne Miedema came off the bench to score twice as Women's Super League leaders Manchester City routed Bournemouth 6-0 to take their place in the fifth round of the Women's FA Cup. Goals from Khadija Shaw and Lauren Hemp, and Laura Coombs' quickfire double, had City 4-0 ahead at the break, with Miedema wrapping up a comprehensive victory over the National League Southern Premier Division side."
Top women's clubs saw aggregate revenues rise by 35% last year, with Arsenal leading Europe at £25.6m. Arsenal's matchday revenue reached £7m after moving all home league fixtures to the Emirates Stadium, producing average home crowds just over 35,000. Chelsea generated the highest commercial income among the top 15 at £19.1m through partnerships. Deloitte's ranking covers most of Europe plus Brazil and Japan but excludes American NWSL, Australian and Swedish clubs due to unavailable data. The ranking marks the fourth annual profiling of 15 leading clubs and the first time average revenues exceeded £10m per club. Women's Super League clubs dominate the list. Additionally, FA Cup results included Manchester City's 6-0 win with Vivianne Miedema netting twice, Liverpool's 6-0 victory over London Bees, and Manchester United's 5-0 win over Burnley.
