This season
27 points from 10 games; expected finish 1.3. Value in each end-of-season outcome, with FCV's simulated probability:
How the value is built
Revenue approach: forward revenue of £115m × adjusted multiple 2.13x = £246m.
Asset approach: realisable squad value, stadium (if owned) and training ground = £233m.
The two are blended with a weight set by division, giving £241m if the club stays in the Scottish Premiership. The live value weights each season outcome by its probability. Full methodology.

Questions
How much is Celtic worth?
The FCV Index values Celtic at £241m as of 28 October 2026, with an indicative range of £205m–277m (data grade A). That ranks Celtic #1 in the Scottish Premiership and #60 of the 198 clubs in the index.
How much would it cost to buy Celtic?
Enterprise value is £241m. After net debt of -£73.1m shown in the latest filed accounts, the indicative equity value (what a buyer would pay for the shares) is about £314m. Owner loans are often written off or restructured in a sale, so the final price depends on the debt agreed in a deal.
Who owns Celtic?
FCV records the owner as Dermot Desmond (largest shareholder). Check the club's filings at Companies House or the relevant national registry for the current shareholding.
How is Celtic's value calculated?
FCV blends a revenue approach (forward revenue of £115m × an adjusted multiple of 2.13x) with a realisable-asset approach (squad, stadium and training ground, £233m), then weights the values if the club is promoted, stays or is relegated by probabilities from a 20,000-run season simulation.
How often is the valuation updated?
Live values are recalculated after every round of matches, and the financial inputs are updated when clubs file new accounts.
