Real Madrid's promising growth is down to a plethora of factors, the biggest being the renovated Santiago Bernabeu stadium which has practically doubled the income on match days for the club. The club made over €1 billion in operating revenue.
With bigger names and a better squad this time around, Real Madrid will look to do justice next season and progress deep, winning all competitions they step into.
Before that, however, they are focused on becoming the first club to win the FIFA Club World Cup.
