The List: English Football's Richest Men (And One Woman...Sort of)

Football, or soccer in the US, is the world's favorite sport. It is also big business, nowhere more so than in England. The magazine Four Four Two recently came out with its annual rich list detailing just who has the biggest wallets in the English game. Not surprisingly, a number of owners (including some Yanks) top the list, but there are some other individuals of note. For example, David Beckham, who came in at #42, is the top-ranked player with an estimated net worth of $206 million. He is also notable for ensuring the inclusion of least one woman, his wife Victoria, onto the list as Four Four Two included earnings from their joint company in his net worth.

And people say that football is sexist...
