The numbers shown are based on operating income, overall revenue and debt to formulate some estimation on how much the club would be worth if someone attempted to purchase it.
However, what’s not taken into account is how high a club’s cost might go if an owner, say, didn’t want to sell.
Here are the 20 sides that seemingly dominate world football:
20) Galatasaray
$294 million
One of the biggest clubs in Turkey with perhaps some of the most veracious support in the game.
19) West Ham United
$309 million
