Football clubs are made up of a mixture of fixed tangible assets (stadium, training ground) and disclosed intangible assets (purchased players) with brand value. A brand is defined as the trademark and associated intellectual property. Team values are enterprise values (equity plus net debt) and include the economics of the team’s stadium but exclude the value of the real estate.
