Football Manager 2023 Premier League Budgets

The Football Manager 2023 Beta has dropped, meaning we now know which club will be topping the Premier League's rich list.

Check below to find out every Premier League club's transfer and wage budget.

Arsenal

Transfer Budget: £26.25 Million

Wage Budget: £1.9 Million

Arsenal are a side that many managers will be looking at this year, with their mix of youth and seasoned talent making them a great prospect in FM23.

With a small budget remaining, could you make one last star signing to elevate this side to the next level?

Aston Villa

Transfer Budget: £30 Million

Wage Budget: £2.1 Million

Steven Gerrard is gone and the Aston Villa job is certainly there for all to see.

It's a tough ask, with the board expecting big things, but that doesn't mean to say that you can't live up to the task of taking Villa into Europe.

Bournemouth

Transfer Budget: £1 Million

Wage Budget: £1.05 Million

Bournemouth represents a unique challenge in Football Manager 2023, with the Cherries boasting a minuscule budget and inferior squad when compared to the rest of the division.

Any chance of survival will require pure management nous, have you got what it takes?

Brentford

Transfer Budget: £6.8 Million

Wage Budget: £1.1 Million

Brentford have a strong squad in place and are looking to improve on their impressive first season in the top flight.

With great talents coming through and a dominant poacher like Toney up top, the Bees are a great place to build a dynasty.

Brighton

Transfer Budget: £70 Million

Wage Budget: £1.1 Million

Yes, that's right, Brighton are one of the richest clubs in Football Manager 2023, with the Seagulls boasting a huge transfer kitty.

Helped by the sales of star men, can you re-invest wisely and once again lift the south-coast club to new heights?

Chelsea

Transfer Budget: £13.5 Million

Wage Budget: £4.4 Million

Chelsea have done their spending and there's little left for you to play with.

However, the trade-off for that is being left with a squad filled with superstars, and we don't think that's such a bad deal.

Crystal Palace

Transfer Budget: £1.7 Million

Wage Budget: £1.5 Million

Palace - much like Brentford - have an exciting squad that's just waiting to flourish.

With stars like Eze, Guehi and Olise ready to explode, the Eagles could be soaring under your management before you know it.

Everton

Transfer Budget: £2 Million

Wage Budget: £2 Million

It was a tough season for the Toffees last season, narrowly avoiding relegation thanks to some heroics in the penultimate game.

Survival meant everything and you'll have to build upon that solid platform, doing your best to get Everton climbing up the table once again.

Fulham

Transfer Budget: £7.4 Million

Wage Budget: £1.2 Million

Fulham have come up with an incredible squad and are looking more than capable of consolidating their Premier League status.

The Cottagers pose a distinct threat up top and don't need much improvement, but we're interested to see how far you can make this small budget go.

Leeds United

Transfer Budget: £25 Million

Wage Budget: £1.2 Million

Leeds are looking like a side that will once again be battling the tide of relegation this season, with the squad yet to gel after a major summer of change.

With £25 Million still in place, there's enough to make some improvements to your squad, improvements that could be much-needed.

Leicester City

Transfer Budget: £10 Million

Wage Budget: £2.4 Million

Leicester are a side on the verge of a rebuild and that will be your task with the Foxes in Football Manager 2023.

A top squad still in place but with many stars looking elsewhere, how much money can you accrue to lift Leicester back to the top?

Liverpool

Transfer Budget: £42 Million

Wage Budget: £4 Million

Liverpool are another side undergoing a transitional phase, with some rumours that Klopp could be coming to the end of his reign.

If that is the case then there are big shoes to fill at Anfield, with the reds once again hoping for domination both domestically and on a European stage.

Man City

Transfer Budget: £102 Million

Wage Budget: £4.2 Million

Manchester City signed Erling Haaland this summer and still have £102 Million to spend, need we say any more?

Man United

Transfer Budget: £20.6 Million

Wage Budget: £4.9 Million

Manchester United are pushing to reclaim their crown and whilst they may be some way behind their city rivials, there's still a glimmer of hope for the Red Devils.

You'll need to nurture your star squad and make your remaining budget go a long way, as the new age of United dominance looks to begin.

Newcastle United

Transfer Budget: £40 Million

Wage Budget: £2.1 Million

Newcastle were the richest club in the Premier League in Football Manager 2022, but in FM22 they've fallen ever so slightly.

With a strong squad now in place, it will be your job to take the Toon forward and help them realise their wildest dreams.

Nottingham Forest

Transfer Budget: £1.5 Million

Wage Budget: £1.4 Million

Forest have milked the well dry this summer, signing 4,500 players (number may be inaccurate) and leaving you with precious little to spend.

Either way, you face the hard task of keeping Forest in the Premier Leauge, with team cohesion the real name of the game.

Southampton

Transfer Budget: £20 Million

Wage Budget: £1.3 Million

The Saints are still marching on in the Premier League but they are once again tipped to face a tricky season.

With some exciting wonderkids in their midst, their fans will probably be content if you manage to avoid another 9-0 loss.

Tottenham

Transfer Budget: £26.4 Million

Wage Budget: £2.7 Million

Spurs are looking to challenge the elite and lose their bottle-job status.

That mercy has not yet arrived, but lifting silverware at this rising power will be your main job in Football Manager 2023.

West Ham

Transfer Budget: £3.9 Million

Wage Budget: £1.9 Million

Memorable European adventures have kept Hammers fans happy, but there's no doubt that this side should once again be pushing for the top half.

With significant investment made over the summer, can you keep the momentum going and help West Ham reach new heights?

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Transfer Budget: £3.9 Million

Wage Budget: £1.4 Million

It's once again looking like it will be an indifferent season for Wolves, with the side boasting so much talent once again unable to score, yet never really threatening to flirt with relegation.

All that could change of course, and the midlands club could prove an appetising starting point as you look to climb the managerial ladder in Football Manager 2023.
