Manchester United remain richest sporting club on planet

Manchester United remain the richest sporting club on the planet.

United are still worth more than any other club in the world. The Red Devils have assets amounting to a staggering £1.24BILLION.

But the Glazer family, who own the club, do have debts of around £700m secured against it.

The next biggest sporting franchise is American Football outfit Dallas Cowboys - weighing in at £1.11bn, according to rich-list compilers Forbes magazine.

Tiger Woods took the individual honours for the ninth straight year, raking in £70m.

But that was a drop of around 10 per cent as sponsors spurned golf's No 1 following lurid tales of his sex life.

David Beckham scooped £27m.
