With the non-matchday revenue becoming increasingly significant for the teams, the image of a particular team amongst the fans has never been this important. Football clubs are reaching out to fans by sharing behind-the-scenes activities with the fans. Almost every player has an account with Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, SnapChat and any other popular social media platform.
Here are the top 10 profiles from Chelsea given their Instagram following. To put things in perspective:
- Cristiano Ronaldo has 27.5m followers.
- Leo Messi has 23m followers.
- F.C. Barcelona has 17.7m followers.
- Real Madrid has 16m followers.
- If you sum up the followers count of the top 10 Chelsea profiles you’ll only get 26.9m. And unlike Cristiano Ronaldo’s 27.5m followers, these 26.9m are not unique followers.
