How Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis' net worth compares to rest of Premier League

Nottingham Forest have just triumphed in a match dubbed the most lucrative in football, opening the door to all the glory and riches the Premier League has to offer.

But while promotion is said to lead to an increase in revenue of at least £135m over the next three seasons, that is a drop in the ocean compared to the wealth of many of the owners of top-flight teams. Amid a number of high-profile takeovers in recent times, there are some eye-watering figures.

Evangelos Marinakis has ploughed millions into the Reds since he bought the club five years ago. And he has said he will invest more, backing boss Steve Cooper in the transfer market, as Forest aim to establish themselves in the top tier.
