10. Arsenal
Sport: Football (Premier League)
Average annual weekly pay (Avg weekly pay): £4,054,066 (£77,963)
The bumper kit deal struck with Puma has a lot to do with Arsenal’s place in the top ten, though, as stated above, the Gunners are funded by the rather well off Stan Kroenke.
9. New York Yankees
Sports: Baseball (MLB)
Average annual weekly pay (Avg weekly pay): £4,263,577 (£81,992)
The most recognisable sports brand in the world, the Yankees could likely afford to run on the revenue they generate from merchandise for a year.
