This comes as a massive boost to the club as they fended off top European rivals.

    Spanish clubs Real Madrid and Barcelona have been more successful in terms of trophies earned in the last couple of seasons, but are second and third respectively in the list of valuable clubs. Real have won back to back Champions League as Barca achieved domestic success. The two powerhouses of the game saw the English giants beat them on the basis of enterprise value.

    How did United remain the most valuable club?

KPMG's global head Andrea Sartori stated that the overall value of football clubs saw an increase. The profits before taxes had an upward trend as well. The English clubs have had strong influence and that was a factor for their growth.
