A SPECIAL REPORT ON FOOTBALL OWNERSHIP & GOVERNANCE

European football has experienced a high influx of investments in the past decade, reaching historic record-breaking numbers. Despite the turmoil in the financial markets in the past couple of years, stakeholders from around the world searching for alternative investments have found football clubs as an attractive investment asset with continuously growing valuations.
This is creating new dynamics around the ways in which football properties are governed and getting access to new ways of funding growth. This was the topic of one of the workshops that took place in WFSEurope 2022 led by Carlos Cantó from SPSG Consulting, where 16 top industry experts shared insights and debated about how these dynamics will evolve in the future.

2022 Digital Trends in the Sports Industry

The digital era has seen mobile technologies take center stage; fueling the dramatic rise in direct-to-consumer (D2C) strategies we are witnessing today and the continued trend towards digital consumption. Naturally, this has tested the sports industry currently navigating a saturated technology market, though it also highlights the importance of establishing a digital strategy sooner rather than later.
It’s an exciting time for the industry – albeit challenging. As teams, leagues, and federations attempt to grow their audience reach and meet consumer demand for more mobile-supported content, many organizations are realizing that they don’t have the infrastructure to adopt an efficient digital fan engagement strategy just yet and that their current business model is outdated.
In this report, entitled ‘2022 Digital Trends’, building a data-driven, digital inventory in the age of mobile, we recognize three overarching trends transforming the industry in 2022

UEFA Annual and Financial Reports 2020/21

UEFA’s latest Annual and Financial Reports both offer timely reminders of how the European body applies the values of the European sports model at all levels of the football pyramid.
The European sports model forms the foundations on which most of our continent’s sports institutions, organisations and governing bodies are built. Its pyramid structure works on the premise that revenue generated at the top by professional competition is reinvested back into the game at all levels. It also recognises the sport’s contribution to society beyond the pitch, whether through education, innovation, sustainability or breaking down barriers.The 2020/21 editions of both our Annual and Financial Reports (plus the Financial Report annex) are packed with data, stories and graphics that show how UEFA lives the values of this model in every aspect of its mission.
