According to Marca, Real Madrid's revenue this summer has exceeded 100 million euros, mainly from youth training transfers and Club World Cup bonuses.

Real Madrid has formulated a clear financial strategy this summer to ensure that the team can maintain its current high level without damaging future development. In the 2024/25 season, Real Madrid set a record revenue of 1.185 billion euros, while less than two months after this season, Real Madrid's revenue has exceeded 100 million euros.

First of all, they are youth training players. The young players trained in Valdebebas have generated about 31 million euros in income. This is not a single large transaction, but a series of transfers. Real Madrid has been promoting this model: promoting youth training players so that they can bring valuable wealth to the team through transfers even if they can't find a position in the first team.

This summer, Real Madrid has made profits from seven youth training players, namely: Obrador (5 million euros), Yusef Enriquez (3 million euros), Chema Andre (6 million euros), Munos (5 million euros), Jacob Ramon (2.5 million euros), Alvaro Rodriguez (2.5 million euros), and Miguel Gutierrez (7 million euros).

A large part of the income comes from the Club World Cup, which has been severely criticized due to the heavy load of the competition, but money eventually became the motivation for the club to participate. Real Madrid earned a total of 80 million euros in the Club World Cup this summer, which is rich enough for Real Madrid.

Thanks to these two revenues, most of the costs of Real Madrid signing players this summer were covered (Heisen, Arnold, A-Fe, Mastantono).

Although Real Madrid's update to the lineup this summer is not as shocking as in 2018-2019 - at that time, they spent more than 500 million yuan in two years, the team's honor room was filled with championship trophys. But this summer, Real Madrid's investment can also rank third in the past 16 teams' summer window operations.
