Interesting Soccer Club Names from Around the World

These are some of the more interesting, unfortunate, and amusing club soccer team names from around the world. All of the clubs listed play in the highest professional division in their respective countries.

Club Name Nation
Thailand Tobacco Monopoly Thailand

I think MLS in Seattle really missed out, they could have been the Seattle Naughty Boys.

Just in case you didn't know, Young Boys in Switzerland play their home games at the Wankdorf.

I wonder if the band TOTO is a fan of the Tanzanian Premier League.

The club from Indonesia unfortunately loses the "Padang" on the official FIFA website.

Khan Research Laboratories [KRL], is Pakistan's main nuclear weapons laboratory as well as an emerging center for long-range missile development. Oh, and it's an interesting name for a soccer club too.

Feel free to pass along any other fun club names you've heard in the comments.
