On Tuesday offthepitch.com revealed that Preston North End have been put up for sale for £50 million.

Looking at Preston North End's revenue in 2017/18, that valuation corresponds to a multiple of 3.75. We have listed the value of 21 Championship clubs based on that multiple - both with and without parachute payments.

It is difficult to estimate the exact value of a football club as there are many different methods to use in search of the most precise valuation.

This is especially true in the lower leagues, where assets - such as property, freehold and location of club - could have a massive impact on the price tag.

We only list 21 clubs as the latest annual accounts for West Brom, Huddersfield and Swansea are based on playing in the Premier League.
