So, which club do you think has the biggest fan following Some would say Manchester United, others would say Real Madrid and a few would even say Bayern Munich. There isn’t really a way to find out the exact number of fans of a specific football club… Or is there
Maybe Facebook can give us a good sample for our “research”. Lets go over to FB and find out the top ten number of members of the official pages of football clubs:
10. Olympique de Marseille, (600,402)9. AC Milan, (1,143,639)8. Arsenal FC, (1,514,132)7. Chelsea FC, (1,591,585)6. Liverpool FC, (2,458,618)5. Manchester United FC, (2,548,425)4. Fenerbahce, (2,993,859)3. Real Madrid CF, (3,698,480)2. Galatasaray SK, (4,470,165)
And finally, the football club with the biggest fan following on Facebook is:
1. FC Barcelona, (4,601,294)
There you have it. A rough idea of who has got a bigger fan base throughout the world. At least the part of the world that has spent enough time on Facebook to find the way to their favorite football club’s page.
