"Manchester United"
When talking about the best English football clubs, the first thing they almost always call Manchester United. The history of the development of the team dates back to 1878, the first name is "Newton Heat".

Manchester has its own academy, which is training personnel for the main and reserve personnel. The captain is Michael Carrick. The team includes talented players from around the world. A distinctive feature is a strong defense game (thanks to defenders Swede Victor Lindelef and Englishman Phil Jones).
"Real Madrid"
This is the football club of the hottest country of Spain. It was him who FIFA awarded the honorary title of the best football team of the XX century. Over the years of its existence, the club proved to be very worthy, won the Spanish Cup four times in a row, was the repeated winner of the Champions League, and also never left the top Spanish division. Indeed, Real Madrid is a very stable team with an experienced leader at the helm and professional players who know everything about football and enjoy every minute of the game.
The club was founded in 1902. They say that he got his name thanks to King Alfonso XIII, who awarded him the title of Royal (in Spanish - real). That's how the club became known as Real Madrid. The team is trained by an experienced coach Julen Lopetegi, the author of a huge number of unique football techniques.
Getting into the “Real” is not so simple. This right must be earned by a masterful game. The team has four goalkeepers, each of which is a professional in his field.

It was they who came up with the motto of “Barcelona” - “More than a club”, which has not changed so far. The list of honorary trophies is a reason for pride. They won the title of champions of Spain 25 times, collected 30 gold cups and a whole scattering of various awards. According to FIFA, “Barcelona” in the list of the best football teams of the XX century takes 4th place. This is the only club in the world that scored a golden hat-trick twice (victory in three major tournaments in a row in 2009 and 2015). In addition, in 2009 the team won all major competitions in general. Nobody has managed to repeat this unique achievement so far.
In 2017, the club was headed by Ernesto Valverde (former coach of the main competitors - Athletic). His arrival was marked by a victory at the Champions Cup, where Barcelona beat teams like Manchester and Real Madrid.

This year, among the acquisitions of “Barca” - defender Jerry Mina and striker Coutinho.
"Arsenal"
The club was founded in 1886. The main prosperity of the club came when the Japanese specialist Arsen Wenger was invited to play the role of head coach . He formed a special playing style of the team - bright attacking football, spectacular transfers and a good understanding of the partner. It was within the club that many talented footballers began to play, who then turned into real masters. Quite a long time, “Arsenal” played Andrei Arshavin. In the 2018 season, things were not going well with the club, they could not qualify for the Champions League.
