Financial Report: Aiming for automatic promotion, Brentford record £24 million profit

Despite having one of the lowest turnovers in the Championship, player sales helped Brentford become hugely profitable in the 2018/19 season.

The club believe they can mount a challenge for the automatic promotion places, though it is still unclear how the rest of the season will pan out due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Without players sales or a profit on the sale of land, Brentford would have made a £20 million loss.
