Money isn't everything, and it's relative.

Travel outside the USA and every kid you meet has heard of Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham. If I were French or Spanish rather than British, these kids would say PSG or Real Madrid instead.

The fans don't have as much money as Americans, but there are 10-15x as many followers on Facebook.

But I would argue England is well known for its sports teams rather than London. (There's also Manchester, Liverpool etc.)
