West Midlands Set to Benefit From Wolves' Exceptional Promotion to the Premier League

Wolverhampton's promotion back into the Premier League could see the club receive a massive financial boost, that could reap benefits for the Black Country community. Wolves participation in the Premier League could generate up to a £140m, if they perform well next season.

Wolves secured a well-deserved promotion to Premier League football on Sunday following a 2-0 win over Birmingham that will see them compete in England's top division for the first time since the 2011/12 season.

According to Dr. Rob Wilson (via Express & Star), an expert in football finance at Sheffield Hallam University, Wolverhampton will receive £120m from television and sponsorship deals, which could rise to £140m if they remain in the Premier League.
