  • Starting off in 1992 as the FA Premier League, the EPL was essentially formed by the first division clubs to take advantage of a lucrative television rights deal.

    Forty nine clubs have been a part of the league since its inception.

    Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton, and Tottenham are some of the founding members.

    Manchester United were the first ever champions of the EPL.

    Out of the 26 years, United have won the title 13 times, all of those under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson.

    Their first victory came in the inaugural season in 1992-93 and the last one in 2012-13.

    Notably, they won three back-to-back titles in 1998-99, 1999-00 and 2000-01.
