Football Rich List published

Football magazine FourFourTwo has published the 2009 Football Rich List, featuring the 100 wealthiest people in the sport, including managers, club owners and players.
Those listed on the sixth annual list, which includes 11 billionaires, are worth an estimated total of £61 billion.
There has been considerable movement on the list with 25 new entries, and the ‘relegation’ of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovitch from first to third place by Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al Nahyan. Abramovich is worth £7 billion now, down £3 billion on last year, while al Nahyan is estimated to be worth £15 billion.
Three of those on the list are “WAGS” (wives and girlfriends of players), according to FourFourTwo.
The Top 20 on the 2009 Football Rich List are:
1. Shekh Mansour bin Zayed al-Nayan (Manchester City) £15bn

2. Lakshmi Mittal & family (QPR) £12.5bn
3. Roman Abramovich (Chelsea) £7bn
