Real Madrid leads global jersey sales as Arsenal misses top 10
Real Madrid tops global jersey sales with 3.13 million units this season, followed by Barcelona (2.94 million) and PSG (2.54 million). The rankings, compiled by Euromericas Sport Marketing, show European clubs dominating the market, with Bayern Munich fourth (2.3 million). Notably, Premier League champions Arsenal is absent from the top 10 despite domestic success.
Inter Miami makes impressive fifth place with 2.1 million jerseys, driven by Lionel Messi's global appeal. Argentina's Boca Juniors ranks sixth (1.9 million), followed by Manchester United (1.85 million). Brazil's CR Flamengo (1.6 million) and Chelsea (1.4 million) complete the European stronghold. Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr claims tenth place largely due to Cristiano Ronaldo's star power.
The sales figures reflect global fanbase preferences and commercial success, with star players like Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. crucial for Real Madrid's top position. Arsenal's absence despite Premier League dominance highlights the difference between domestic success and global commercial appeal in football's business landscape.
