London: Manchester City's on-field success saw the club's revenues swell to £535 million ($692 million) last season as the Premier League champions posted a profit for the fifth straight year.

A 20 percent surge in broadcast revenue saw City's income rise from £500.5 million in the 2017/18 season.

Pep Guardiola's men completed an unprecedented quadruple of England's domestic trophies by winning the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Community Shield.

The sale of a host of players unable to break into the first team helped boost profits to £10.1 million. Prior to Sheikh Mansour's takeover of City in 2008, the club's revenue was a mere £87 million.

Huge losses of over £584 million followed during the first six years of their ownership due to massive investment in the playing squad and facilities, including the £200 million Etihad Campus training ground.
