Power-ranking history
Who controls the club
The entity that holds control today, one per franchise; co-controllers and minority holders are listed, never summed.
How this is measured
Exactly one control entity is recorded per franchise, so a portfolio can never count a club twice. Co-controllers and minority holders are shown as published and carry no weight in any total.
The chip names the evidence. Sourced: a primary source is linked (league, club, filing or tier-one outlet). Cross-checked: matched against the ownership-change sweep. Contested: disputed or mid-sale. Rows are reviewed weekly.
Stakes are as published, often only “majority”, and are not pro-rated. A record of control is not a claim about anyone’s intent or conduct.
Who controls the clubClube Desportivo Nacional (club members)
Nacional's football company is a Portuguese SAD controlled by the founding club, with club president Rui Alves also chairing the SAD board for 2025-2027. A deal to sell 60% to Singapore's ACA Football Partners was approved by members in April 2025 but collapsed in June 2025, and no new investor has been announced. The club's exact percentage of the SAD was not found.
