Real Madrid continues to dominate the world of football as it becomes the most-followed football club on Instagram in 2025 with 177 million followers.
Barcelona come in second with 144 million, proving that the Spanish giants remain global powerhouses both in trophies and digital presence.
One of the biggest surprises of the year is Al-Nassr’s rise. The Saudi club broke into the top ranks after Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival, which triggered an unprecedented surge in popularity.
With over 28 million followers, Al-Nassr now stand shoulder to shoulder with Europe's elite, an undeniable testament to Ronaldo’s global impact on football.
A similar transformation happened with Inter Miami. After signing Lionel Messi, the American club exploded in popularity, jumping to nearly 18 million followers.
In a short time, Inter Miami went from a local MLS team to a global social media brand. Just like Ronaldo with Al-Nassr, Messi’s move proved that one superstar can reshape the entire image of a club.
