Euroleague & Clubs Valued at €3.2 Billion, Set to Rise to €4.3 Billion with Franchises
A recent report by JB Capital estimates the Euroleague system's total value at an impressive €3.2 billion. This valuation breaks down into €1.41 billion for the league itself for the 2025-26 season, complemented by an additional €1.8 billion attributed to the teams holding A-Licenses.
The analysis projects a significant increase in this overall value. Should Euroleague transition from its current ten-year licensing system to a permanent franchise model, as recently announced, the combined worth of the league and its clubs could surge by 25%, reaching €4.3 billion by the 2026-27 season.
JB Capital anticipates the league's standalone value to climb to €1.64 billion for the 2026-27 season, a projection supported by robust financial fundamentals. Euroleague management forecasts sustained growth in both revenues and EBITDA, expecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) exceeding 10% annually from the 2022-23 season through 2034-35.
Individual club valuations, calculated using revenue-based multiples, demonstrate considerable financial strength, ranging from over €60 million to more than €320 million. This highlights the growing commercial appeal and competitive profile of the participating organizations.
The proposed shift to permanent franchises is deemed a pivotal move. Euroleague believes this strategic reform will further solidify its position as one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding professional sports organizations globally, ultimately contributing to the projected €4.3 billion total value.
