EC wrote:2011-2012 Real Madrid already has outlined what will be the highest budget in its history , which first exceed the threshold of 500 million euros. In the absence of some notes to close, the figure will be around 510 million euros , the highest budget of any football club in the world. The figure represents an increase of 71 million euros from the budget of the financial period ending 30 June and it was 439 million euros.

Real Madrid president presented the numbers on the board to be held next Monday at the Santiago Bernabeu to know the latest movements of Madrid entity's market, in addition to the 'ok' the balance of this season, be closed with a surplus of 25 million euros before tax , by 31 million of the 2009-2010 season.

The delicate economic times facing the football does not seem to pass bill to Real Madrid, and neither has made ​​the team coached by Mourinho was unable to end the reign of Barcelona. The Cup has made ​​the first step, at least I think white managers , but does not match the investments made ​​in human material, that is, players. And sports is that the factor is not the main asset when talking about income, although an important part, and justify the 30 million euros reach Champions when he stepped through the penultimate round of the competition. In fact, European Cup to reach the budget speech to the second round Cup and the quarter , so this time there have been two more matches in Champions Cup and one in

Florentino Perez, in his first stint as Real Madrid president, set up a business structure capable of generating income outside sports scores, that seems to have lowered the level of performance years later. The main source of income of the entity has returned to Real Madrid be the Bernabeu . The exploitation of the white stage is higher than, for example, get the Barcelona and the Camp Nou. Tickets, subscriptions and private boxes are not the only elements that produce revenue. Currently, the bowels of the stadium are home to three different restaurants, to which must be added the Adidas store or white museum tour is part of the stadium.

The idea was to keep alive the Bernabeu, 365 days a year and they have succeeded. The investment in the stadium have been profitable and justified with 160 million euros have been entered during the 2010-11 season. Rosell seeks to create the infrastructure that lacks at the moment and trying to generate revenues associated with the Camp Nou and thought it reduce the number of members of that currently has the Barca team to raise money to enter either private balconies or ticket sales. In the end it abandoned the idea to avoid conflict with the social masses.

The second factor that supports the target surplus is referring to television rights. 158 million euros Real Madrid have entered on this concept, over the marketing which is the third source of revenue for the coffers white has remained at 140 million euros. In contrast, the costs reach 210 million by the staff and 90 million in various operations, namely transfers of players. In the chapter on wages, Barcelona has gone up to 235 million euros, which will become the sports organization around the world with the most expensive in terms of staff salaries. This fact contrasts with the success of his quarry, today's main asset of the Catalan. azulgrana The budget will be around 440 million euros.

What I've been able to find (not sure if they are all correct):
- CR: 12 million (Everything is in Euros)
- Kaka: 9 million
- Casillas: 6 million
- Benzema: 6 million
- Higuain: 6 million
- Adebayor: 6 million
- Ozil: 5 million
- Khedira: 5 million
- Lass: 5 million
- Carvalho: 4.5 million
- Xabi Alonso: 4.5 million
- Pepe: 4 million
- Sahin: 4 million
- Ramos: 3 million
- Di Maria: 2 million (probably incorrect)

I'll try to find information about the others.

I can see what started the Alonso rumour though (that ManU was willing to up his wages). How can he make less than Khedira.

I think he was promised a raise based on performances. And I agree I think he played well enough to earn his raise last season.
