Liverpool earn more money from 2013-14 season than champions Manchester City

Liverpool have been named as the Premier League's top earners following the 2013-14 season, despite finishing as runners-up to champions Manchester City.

The Merseyside outfit ended the campaign two points below City, who secured a 2-0 win over West Ham United on Sunday to clinch the title.

Due to Liverpool being shown in more live matches on television, the Reds have raked in £97.5m, while City have earned £96.5m.

Cardiff City received £62.08m as a result of television money, despite getting relegated to the Championship by finishing bottom in the table.

The figure is more than the £60.8m that Manchester United earned for winning the title last year because of the Premier League's new broadcasting deal.
