Premier League clubs have broken their own record for combined shirt sponsorships for the tenth consecutive season, with the league's 20 clubs collective value now standing at £349.1 million for the 2019/20 season.
That's a £33.5 million increase from 2018/19, with Manchester United still leading the way with an increased annual total of £64 million. There's a huge disparity between the league's top 6 sides and the rest of the pack, with Man City earning £45 million, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool all bringing home £40 million and Tottenham totally £35 million a season. The next highest team is West Ham, who earn £10 million a season from their partnerships.

Newly-introduced sleeve sponsorships have had a large impact on the financials, with eighteen teams out of twenty in the league earning between £5-10 million per year from sleeve deals. Notably, half of all Premier League clubs are now sponsored by a betting company despite a blanket ban on gambling within football, and Liverpool's Standard Chartered partnershop is the only remaining UK-based sponsor in the league.
