What is the Optimal Method to Value a Football Club? ArXiv ID: ssrn-2238265 “View on arXiv” Authors: Unknown Abstract This paper introduces an original multivariate model developed to value English Premier League (EPL) clubs. Prior to developing the model, established valuation Keywords: Valuation Models, Multiple Regression, Intangible Assets, Cash Flow Modeling, Sports Economics, Alternative Assets Complexity vs Empirical Score Math Complexity: 2.0/10 Empirical Rigor: 3.5/10 Quadrant: Philosophers Why: The paper compares established valuation techniques (DCF, multiples) with a new multivariate model for football clubs, but the excerpt shows only conceptual discussion and descriptive statistics, lacking advanced mathematical derivations or backtest-ready implementation details. flowchart TD A["Research Goal:<br>Determine Optimal Football Club Valuation Method"] --> B["Key Methodology<br>Multivariate Model Development"] B --> C["Data Inputs<br>EPL Clubs & Financials"] C --> D{"Computational Process:<br>Multiple Regression"} D --> E["Key Findings<br>Original Multivariate Model"] D --> F["Comparative Analysis<br>vs. Cash Flow Models"] --> E
