Forbes has compiled its annual rankings of the most valuable sports franchises in the world, and, for the first time since the publication started its Top 50 rankings in 2011, a soccer team does not top the list. The Dallas Cowboys, valued at $4 billion, have overtaken Real Madrid as the most valuable team in sports. FC Barcelona, the Yankees and Manchester United round out the top-five. The NFL dominates the list with 27 teams making the Top 50, with only the Raiders, Bills, Lions, Bengals and Rams missing out.
