Chelsea FC posts a record loss

As the Londoners announced on their website, the club's deficit amounted to 262 million British pounds (approx. 277 million Swiss francs) and, according to the BBC, significantly surpassed Manchester City's previous negative record from 2011. At that time, City recorded a loss of 197.5 million pounds (approx. 208 million Swiss francs).

In sporting terms, the season was quite successful for Chelsea, which recorded a turnover of the equivalent of 518 million Swiss francs: although the team only managed fourth place in the Premier League, it came out on top in the Conference League and at the Club World Cup.
