    CELTIC have been ranked amongst the most prominent European football clubs in a new report by global financial firm KPMG.

    The Scottish champions' success on the pitch with eight-in-a-row, and a third successive domestic treble, has now been accompanied by another achievement off the pitch, one which highlights the financial health and future potential of the club.

    The European Elite 2019: Football Clubs’ Valuation report has included Celtic amongst the biggest clubs in Europe. The study is a comprehensive analysis providing an indication of the Enterprise Value (EV) of the 32 most prominent European football clubs as at January 1, 2019.

    Celtic met the three-point selection criteria which required clubs to be among the top 50 European teams by total operating revenues, rank in the top 50 teams according to the five-year UEFA coefficient and feature within the top 30 European teams by number of social media followers.

    KPMG, one of the biggest financial services advisory firms in the world, has been running the study for four years and, until now, the 32 places up for grabs have always comprised of clubs from the same eight countries - England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Portugal, Netherlands and Turkey.

    Celtic's inclusion marks the first time Scotland has been represented in the rankings, and the report cites the Scottish champions' revenue and profitability improvements from UEFA Champions League and Europa League participation as the primary factor in them breaking through.

    A club’s place in the rankings is based on five parameters - profitability, social media popularity, sporting potential of the squad, broadcast rights and stadium ownership.

    The Scottish champions are ranked 30th on the list. Real Madrid, Manchester United and Barcelona have dominated the top three positions in recent years, but this year Bayern Munich muscled the Catalan club out of third sport, with Real Madrid topping the list ahead of Manchester United in second.

    Star players and lucrative broadcast deals help prop up the teams at the top of the list, but the report highlights the potential of academy development as a key way to bridge the gap and increase the chances for success on and off the pitch.

    Celtic’s Academy system has produced some of Scotland’s most talented players in recent years with the likes of James Forrest, Kieran Tierney and Callum McGregor being key figures in Celtic’s three consecutive treble-winning campaigns.

    That trend looks set to continue with Mikey Johnston, Ewan Henderson Anthony Ralston and Karamoko Dembele all impressing in the Hoops first-team this season.

    Signed Youssouf Mulumbu, free agent since June 1st, on a free on August 31st with that financial clout.

    There really is no excuse not to spend big this year.

    Brilliant, we just need to see the same sort of results on the park. It’s a bit like boasting about the size of yer house and having * all inside it.
