Madrid-Sana
Barcelona, the Spanish club, topped the Forbes magazine's list of the most valuable football teams in the world for the first time, surpassing its traditional rivals Real Madrid.
The magazine estimated Barcelona's value at $ 4.66 billion, putting Real Madrid at $ 4.55 billion in second place.
Barcelona's rise to this ranking comes after signing Lionel Messi, the world's highest-paid player.
It is noteworthy that only two teams have dominated the first place during the past 16 years, namely Manchester United, who led the ranking 11 times, and Real Madrid, who led the ranking 5 times.
