Football Tycoon is a Java-based sports strategy video game developed for a range of mobile phone handsets by BAFTA-award winning game studio Dynamo Games. The title is the first to be released by the developer under the Dynamo Sports brand of sports games.

Football Tycoon was launched as a Java ME game on May 21, 2009 across the major UK mobile operators. Other versions focusing on other sports including Formula One, Rugby, American Football, ice hockey and Golf are due for future release.

Football Tycoon places players in the role of a wealthy business owner overseeing the running of a football club. The position of owner opens up many tactical decisions typically not found in managerial simulation titles. As such, the game is comparable to the popular Rollercoaster Tycoon series rather than managerial series such as Championship Manager and Football Manager.

Players have free rein to hire managers, control finances, develop stadiums and orchestrate intense media campaigns to take their chosen club to new heights. The game gives players a vastly diverse range of choices when compared to management simulators.

The title features two expansive single player modes. The rags to riches Grass Roots mode tasks players with taking a small team to the top of the Tycoon Owner Rich List within 30 years.
