Persepolis on the list of nominees for the world’s most popular teams
The website of the Madrid-based publication Marca has released a poll featuring a list of renowned football clubs from around the world, giving its users the opportunity to vote for their favorite and least favorite teams from the available options.
In this list, only two clubs from Asia are mentioned, one of which is Persepolis and the other is Al-Nassr from Saudi Arabia. It seems the latter’s presence is largely due to Cristiano Ronaldo’s involvement rather than the popularity it had before the arrival of this Portuguese star.
