World's richest club? Manchester City
File this one under Holy Bloody Crap. Manchester City, a club that was in the third tier of English

owners estimated at about $50 billion.
City wasted no time in flashing their newfound cash, offering about $200 million yesterday as they
tried in vain to lure David Villa from Valencia and Mario Gomez from Stuttgart.
