Methodology

  1. ManySpins.com collated a list of the current 16 clubs in the UEFA Champions League and analysed a list of players according to ESPN.
  2. To work out the average potential estimated earnings per post, ManySpins.com used the formula that every follower is worth approximately £0.00313. This figure was multiplied by the number of followers per account.
  3. The players’ potential earnings were then tallied together to find the collective squads’ potential earnings.

*These are estimations only, on the premise that each post is sponsored/ads.

**ManySpins.com extracted the data from Instagram over the period February 3 to February 8 and is accurate as of then but is subject to change.
