4) economics of big clubs not good. there exceptions. teams not getting near revenue games teams in other major european soccer powers getting due fact few teams own own stadiums , have share revenue state , local government. juventus has built stadium - not coincidence that, despite recent "calciopoli" scandal issues - economically stable , profitable team of all. inter has sold approximately 15% of overall interests chinese consortium, , consortium actively pursuing collaborative effort local interests build stadium solely inter.
