The Integrity of the Game and Shareholdings in European Football Clubs

Meer over het boek

The ENIC judgement by the Court of Arbitration for Sports in 1999 emphasized the need for UEFA regulations to uphold football's integrity, particularly regarding the authenticity of match results. The thesis explores the prohibition of multi-club ownership in UEFA competitions and highlights additional concerns, such as cross ownership and shareholdings by individuals associated with clubs. It delves into how these financial relationships can potentially compromise the integrity of the sport, offering a critical analysis of the legal framework surrounding these issues in international business law.
