Forbes’ List Of Top 20 Most Valuable Sports Franchises In The World.

On Forbes’ list of most valuable sports franchises around the world, 12 of the top 20 spots are held by American Football teams. And of the eight non-NFL franchises, five are international soccer clubs.Major League Baseball had three teams on the list (New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers), and no other non-American Football team made the list.
So American Football teams from Baltimore, Green Bay and Indianapolis are more valuable than any other franchise in American sports, other than those three baseball teams.

The Dallas Cowboys were the top American Football team on the list, valued at $2.1 billion. That’s no surprise given their widespread popularity and the most opulent stadium in sports.
