10. FC Internazionale.

The club closes the top ten moneybags. The value of the team's assets, according to the authoritative Forbes magazine, which conducts a study, is $ 441 million. After the departure of Mourinho, the team needs to update the composition, which entails financial investments and a waiting period for returns. However, the arrival of Chinese investors this summer, the effect may come much faster.
9. Liverpool FC – $552 million
•
The once formidable English grand has not won anything worthwhile for a long time. Trying to impose a struggle in the national championship, Liverpool has suffered setbacks over and over again, demonstrating only a few glimpses of quality play during the season. Nevertheless, Liverpool is a brand of world football, bright stars in the squad and always big ambitions of the top management.
8. Juventus FC – $628 million
•
This club was reborn from the Italian B series like a Phoenix from the ashes. Having been relegated to the lower division on proven allegations of match-fixing by management, Juventus not only instantly returned back, but also significantly rejuvenated the squad, setting new high goals for itself. Currently, Juventus is a successful fusion of youth and experience, with World Champions Buffon and Pirlo in its ranks. After a successful last season, in which the team managed to confidently get the Scudetto, the interest in this club among the fans is only increasing.
7. Chelsea FC – $822 million

The capital of Roman Abramovich managed to provide the club with "only" the 7th position in the ranking of the most expensive football teams in the world. However, after a series of inconclusive seasons and experimentation with the manager, the Champions Cup winner has had a record start in the Premier League and is seen as a formidable force on the pitch, as well as an attractive sign for football fans and sponsors.
6. FC Milan – $838 million
•
Outwardly, the team is full of well-being, but alarming symptoms can be seen in connection with the sale of their leader – Ibrahimovic, whose salary appetites have become unbearable for the club. Problems with the law of the ex-president of the Berlusconi team and the emerging crisis in the game may adversely affect the financial strength of the club.

•
A team that always sets the highest goals for itself.
1. Manchester United FC – $1,9 billion
