Real Madrid Club de Fútbol (Spanish pronunciation: [reˈal maˈðɾið ˈkluβ ðe ˈfutβol] Royal Madrid
Football Club), commonly known as Real Madrid, is a professional football club
based in Madrid, Spain.
Founded in 1902 as Madrid Football Club, has traditionally
worn a white home kit since. The word Real is Spanish for royal and was
bestowed to the club by King Alfonso XIII in 1920 together with the royal crown
in the emblem. The team has played its home matches in the 85,454-capacity
Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in downtown Madrid since 1947. Unlike most European
football clubs, Real Madrid's members (socios) have owned and operated the club
since its inception.
The club is the richest football club in terms of annual
revenue, generating €513million in 2012[5] and the second most valuable, worth
€1.8billion.[6] It is one of three clubs to have never been relegated from the
top flight of Spanish football, along with Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona. Real
Madrid holds many long-standing rivalries, most notably El Clásico with FC
Barcelona.
The club established itself as a major force in both
Spanish and European football during the 1950s. Domestically, Real Madrid has
won a record 32 La Liga titles, 18 Copas del Rey, 9 Supercopas de España, 1
Copa Eva Duarte and 1 Copa de la Liga.[7] Internationally it has won a record
nine European Cup/UEFA Champions League titles and a joint record three
Intercontinental Cups, as well as two UEFA Cups, and one UEFA Super Cup.
