Premier League Top 5 Most Lucrative Kit Deals


Club jerseys is a huge market with increasing revenues, so it is no surprise that the top brands fight with each other in order to land the biggest clubs. This will give more exposure to their brand and generate more revenue for them.

On the other hand the clubs also gain a percentage from the sale of merchandise and jerseys are a huge part of that revenue.

Here are the top 5 most lucrative EPL kit deals.
