The Facebook communities of European clubs

With more than 1.2 billion users worldwide, Facebook is the largest Internet social network. The platform, which was launched in 2006 by American Mark Zuckerberg, has quickly become a central tool enhancing visibility for brands, personalities, and clubs.

News Tank tracks and compiles the number of "like" mentions of the Facebook page for every European Top 5 league club (Liga BBVA, Barclays Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A TIM, and Ligue 1), plus some of the most "liked" clubs on Facebook from the Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Turkey, Russia, and other clubs throughout Europe.
