  • News Tank Football has tracked the YouTube channels of clubs in the European Top 5 leagues since September 2014.
    • Many clubs in the European Top 5 do not have official YouTube channels
    • Since YouTube account holders can choose whether to display subscriber and video view numbers, it is sometimes not possible to update the figures for some clubs.
