Real Madrid have been named the most valuable football club in the world and 13th in the world overall.

Forbes have given the reigning La Liga and Champions League holders a whopping $5.1 billion valuation, a 41 per cent increase from five years ago.

Los Blancos are one of the most successful teams in Europe and defeated Liverpool in the Champions League final in May to win their 14th major European honour.

Two places behind in 15th are bitter rivals Barcelona, who despite their financial troubles in recent years, are still worth a cool $5 billion.

Manchester United are the only other football team to rank in the top 20 and that makes them the highest-ranked English sporting organisation.

A whopping 30 of the top 50 are NFL teams thanks to one of the biggest media deals in sport, which is set to run until 2032.

The NFL finalised a $112 billion deal last year and starting this year, Thursday Night Football will air on Amazon. Top of the pile is the Dallas Cowboys, who are worth $8 billion.
