Here are the top 5 sugar daddy clubs to manage in Football Manager 2021.
Please keep in mind that the richest clubs list contains only a maximum of
one team in a league.
Before moving on to the list, let us understand what a sugar daddy is (in FM21 terms). Any chairman willing to invest large sums of money into the club to fund its growth can be classified as a sugar daddy chairman.
Three types of sugar daddy owners
1. Front End/Foreground – The sugar daddy everyone wishes in their club is the type of chairman who is willing to throw money into the club for new infrastructure and players.
2. Backend/Background – A background sugar daddies primary focus is taking care of club stability and financial health. You may get investment towards promotion or growth within your own league but don’t expect much.
3. Underwriter/Expects Returns – This is the most common type of sugar daddy owner in the game and will wipe out bad debts and generally improve the club's financial stability but will be expecting the club to provide funds/returns in the future.
This article will only focus on the Front end/Foreground sugar daddy clubs since that is the dream for most FM21 managers.
Manchester City

It will come as no surprise to football fans that the first team on this list are Manchester City. Owned by the “City Football Group”, chairman Khaldoon AL Mubarak is determined to make Man City the best club in the world and is ready to invest in order to achieve this vision.

Managing Man City will be a dream for many FM 2021 managers looking to
establish European football dominance seemingly backed by an endless pit of
money.

PSG
Like Man City, PSG has spent more than £ 1bn in the last decade alone and have
broken the transfer record on several occasions. Although they are currently
under investigation by FFP, the chairman and the board are determined to land
the best players in order to achieve their goal of European dominance with the
club.
For FM21 Managers aiming to achieve global dominance, PSG could be one of the
favourite clubs to manage with seemingly unlimited coffers and a board looking
to back the manager to the hilt with investments.
LA Galaxy are the 3rd team on this list. Owned by the Anschutz Entertainment
Group, they are one of the most dominant teams of the MLS. Owner/Chairman
Philip Anschutz is an avid sportsman having stakes in the most dominant NBA
team LA Lakers.
La Galaxy
If you are looking to avoid managing the usual suspects in the European teams,
LA Galaxy may not be a bad fit. You can get to manage all legends, albeit past
their prime and continue dominance in the MLS.

A very recent entrant in the Sugar Daddy list (Since FM2020), UD Almeria were purchased by Turki Al-Sheikh, a minister at the Royal Court of Saudi Arabia. With their recent “oil money” and an owner ready to invest in the club's future, this would certainly pose an entertaining challenge for many FM 21 Managers. Almeria are referred to as the “Man City of Spain”. Under a talented manager, they could even surpass what Man City have achieved, challenging the football giants of La Liga.
Although several Chinese clubs have sugar daddy owners, Guangzhou is the most
consistent and richest of the clubs. They are owned by the Evergrande Real
Estate Group & The Alibaba group. They have dominated Chinese football in
recent years and have won the Chinese Super League, 8 times in the last 10
years and have finished runners up 2 times.
