It’s also only 18 teams and fewer matches for a league that is supposed to be less popular. I see what you are saying though.
the question is why the difference isn’t bigger in favor of the Bundesliga, considering Germany is way bigger (+35 millions) and way richer (three times the GDP).
popularity kicks in with the foreign deals, which puts the spanish league way ahead of the Bundesliga.
I’m guessing language has a lot to do with it. All of the latin american language is pulled towards the Spanish league.
I’m sure the guy is talking about why Germany isn’t further ahead of la liga in the graph since Germany is a richer country therefore people would more likely pay more for football domestically. Which the graph is demonstrating domestic license, so no matter how many countries speak Spanish, Germany ought to be further ahead of LaLiga by that logic regardless
