Club football is starting soon

I've finally decided to get into European football after growing up a Mexico NT and partly Club América fan, watching only now and then. Watching this world cup, learning about the players, has been fun and I want to keep that rolling

I spent the last couple of days going down the rabbit hole learning about promotion/relegation, domestic cups, Champions League, supporter culture, club history, etc. It's honestly way deeper than I realized.I researched a bunch of clubs and narrowed it down to these:

England:Man City, Liverpool, Sheffield Wednesday

Spain: Barcelona

Italy: Inter, Como

France: PSG

Germany: Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich

Outside the Big Five: Ajax and Bodø/Glimt

My reasoning wasn't just trophies. I liked atmosphere, history, cities, kits, stories, and identity. Como's rise from Serie D to the Champions League was awesome to read about. Dortmund's Yellow Wall seems like a bucket-list experience. Bayern interests me because I've actually visited Bavaria. PSG clicked because I love Paris, been there too (also Wemby is a fan). Liverpool just feels like a club I'd enjoy following, especially if they sign Gilberto Mora.

My plan is to watch these clubs throughout the 2026–27 season and let one naturally become "my club" instead of forcing it.

How'd I do? Any opinions on my shortlist? Anything I should know about these clubs - the good, the bad, or the ugly - before the season starts?
