In recent decades, Spanish football clubs have experienced an extraordinary transformation process that has decisively influenced their organizational structure. This chapter uses a sociological approach to study Spanish football clubs’ origin and evolution throughout the 20th century and until the present day. It includes an analysis of their recent processes of structural differentiation and their progressive transformation into transnational corporations, as well as an examination of the fans’ perspective on these transformations.
