Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich remain member-owned, while most Premier League clubs are privately held. The clubs still trading publicly are a mix of global brands, Portuguese and Turkish giants, and a handful of long-standing European listings. **Largest by value** Manchester United, at roughly $3.7bn on the NYSE. **Densest market** Borsa Istanbul, home to all four of Turkey's biggest clubs. **Only UK listing in London** Celtic, which trades on AIM. | Club | Exchange | Ticker | | ------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------------- | | Manchester United | New York Stock Exchange | MANU | | Juventus | Euronext Milan | JUVE | | Borussia Dortmund | Frankfurt (Xetra) | BVB | | Ajax | Euronext Amsterdam | AJAX | | Celtic | London AIM | CCP | | Lazio | Euronext Milan | SSL | | Olympique Lyonnais | Euronext Paris | EFG | | Benfica | Euronext Lisbon | SLBEN | | FC Porto / Sporting CP | Euronext Lisbon | FCP / SCP | | Galatasaray / Fenerbahçe / Beşiktaş / Trabzonspor | Borsa Istanbul | GSRAY / FENER / BJKAS / TSPOR | ## 1\. Manchester United United floated in New York in 2012 and remain the most liquid football stock, with a market cap near [$3.76bn](https://www.hl.co.uk/shares/shares-search-results/m/manchester-united-plc-usd0.0005-a/buy-and-sell-shares?ref=footballbusinessnews.com). Public investors hold low-vote Class A shares, so control stays with the Glazers and Sir Jim Ratcliffe's INEOS. That structure has shaped every [takeover attempt](https://www.footballbusinessnews.com/failed-football-takeovers-10-deals-that-collapsed-and-why/)of recent years. ![View across Old Trafford from the East Stand, home of NYSE-listed Manchester United](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/View_of_Old_Trafford_from_East_Stand.jpg) Old Trafford from the East Stand.

Juventus Exor controls about 65% of the Turin club. Juventus closed 2025/26 with a [€66m loss](https://en.ilsole24ore.com/art/juventus-2526-net-profit-up-to-66-million-250-million-capital-increase-approved-by-exor-AJ2eJHTB?ref=footballbusinessnews.com)and will ask shareholders on 3 November to approve a capital increase of up to €250m. After the results, the shares fell to a [ten-year low](https://forbes.it/2026/09/30/juventus-titolo-crolla-dopo-nono-bilancio-rosso-consecutivo?ref=footballbusinessnews.com). ## 3\. Borussia Dortmund Dortmund listed in Frankfurt in October 2000 and is still the only Bundesliga club to have gone public. Its GmbH & Co. KGaA structure keeps the club association in control, in line with German ownership rules. ## 4\. Ajax Ajax has traded in Amsterdam since 1998, when its IPO [raised just over €50m](https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/ajax-ziet-vooralsnog-af-van-beindiging-beursnotering?ref=footballbusinessnews.com). The club has studied delisting but has so far chosen to keep its quote. ## 5\. Celtic Celtic is the [only UK club listed in London](https://www.ig.com/uk/trading-strategies/the-best-football-shares-to-watch--260619?ref=footballbusinessnews.com)and one of the few listed clubs that is consistently profitable. Its AIM status also brings governance scrutiny that private rivals avoid. ## 6\. Lazio Lazio became Italy's first listed club in 1998\. Since Roma delisted in 2022, it has been one of only two Serie A clubs on the Milan exchange. ## 7\. Olympique Lyonnais Lyon trades as Eagle Football Group. In June 2026, Olympe Bidco [bought the 87.78% stake](https://www.abcbourse.com/marches/realisation-des-operations-avec-olympe-bidco-et-de-la-restructuration-de-la-dett%5F698878?ref=footballbusinessnews.com)held by Eagle Bidco, then in administration, for $30m, alongside a rescheduling of the group's debt. The free float is now very thin. ## 8\. Benfica Benfica SAD uses the Lisbon market for debt as well as equity. In 2026 it raised [€65m in five-year retail bonds](https://www.rtp.pt/noticias/benfica/benfica-sad-encaixa-65-milhoes-de-euros-em-obrigacoes-com-procura-136-vezes-superior-a-oferta%5Fd1737300?ref=footballbusinessnews.com)at 4.65%, a funding route few other clubs use. ## 9\. FC Porto and Sporting CP Both clubs list their football SADs on Euronext Lisbon. As at Benfica, the parent club keeps majority control, so the shares give economic exposure rather than influence. ## 10\. Turkey's big four Galatasaray, Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor all trade in Istanbul. In September, Galatasaray was [removed from the BIST 100](https://www.forbes.com.tr/ekonomi/dort-buyuklerden-bir-takim-kaldi-galatasaray-hisseleri-bist-100-den-cikarildi?ref=footballbusinessnews.com)with its shares below one lira, leaving Fenerbahçe as the only one of the four still in the index. **Also listed** In Denmark, FC Copenhagen (through Parken Sport & Entertainment), Brøndby, AGF and AaB trade on Nasdaq Copenhagen. Even so, most institutional money in football now arrives through private deals rather than public markets, as our list of [clubs owned by private equity](https://www.footballbusinessnews.com/10-football-clubs-owned-by-private-equity-in-2026/)shows. **Sources:** [Hargreaves Lansdown](https://www.hl.co.uk/shares/shares-search-results/m/manchester-united-plc-usd0.0005-a/buy-and-sell-shares?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [Il Sole 24 Ore](https://en.ilsole24ore.com/art/juventus-2526-net-profit-up-to-66-million-250-million-capital-increase-approved-by-exor-AJ2eJHTB?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [Forbes Italia](https://forbes.it/2026/09/30/juventus-titolo-crolla-dopo-nono-bilancio-rosso-consecutivo?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [Voetbal International](https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/ajax-ziet-vooralsnog-af-van-beindiging-beursnotering?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [IG](https://www.ig.com/uk/trading-strategies/the-best-football-shares-to-watch--260619?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [ABC Bourse / Eagle Football Group](https://www.abcbourse.com/marches/realisation-des-operations-avec-olympe-bidco-et-de-la-restructuration-de-la-dett%5F698878?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [RTP](https://www.rtp.pt/noticias/benfica/benfica-sad-encaixa-65-milhoes-de-euros-em-obrigacoes-com-procura-136-vezes-superior-a-oferta%5Fd1737300?ref=footballbusinessnews.com), [Forbes Türkiye](https://www.forbes.com.tr/ekonomi/dort-buyuklerden-bir-takim-kaldi-galatasaray-hisseleri-bist-100-den-cikarildi?ref=footballbusinessnews.com).
