- The claim states this applies to 'each' club individually, but revenue from broadcasting rights varies significantly between clubs based on their performance, European competition participation, and individual commercial deals. Top clubs like PSG likely have different revenue breakdowns compared to smaller clubs.
- The timeframe is unspecified - broadcasting rights values have fluctuated significantly in recent years, particularly after the collapse of the Mediapro deal and subsequent renegotiations.
- The claim does not distinguish between domestic league TV rights, European competition TV rights (UEFA Champions League, Europa League), and international rights.
