  • Dimensions of Football Stadium and Museum Tour Experiences: the Case of Europe’S Most Valuable Brands
    sustainability Article Dimensions of Football Stadium and Museum Tour Experiences: The Case of Europe’s Most Valuable Brands Ana Brochado 1,*, Carlos Brito 2, Adrien Bouchet 3 and Fernando Oliveira 4 1 Centre for Socioeconomic and Territorial Studies (DINÂMIA’CET), ISCTE—Instituto Universitário de Lisboa, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal 2 Faculty of Economics, University of Porto, 4200-464 Porto, Portugal; [email protected] 3 Collins College of Business, The University of Tulsa, Tulsa, OK 74104, USA; [email protected] 4 ISCTE—Instituto Universitário de Lisboa, 1649-026 Lisbon, Portugal; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In the context of football’s globalisation, some of the most important football clubs (FCs) can currently be classified as ‘entertainment multinationals’. Sport hospitality provides opportunities to maximise club stadiums’ use so that they can increase clubs’ annual turnover and function as branding platforms. This study sought to identify the main narratives shared online about—and the dimensions of—visitors’ experiences with top football brands in stadium tours. The data collected for this research comprised 400 text reviews for 10 European FCs’ stadiums (i.e., 4000 reviews) written by visitors in the post-experience phase. Content analysis of these Web reviews was conducted using Leximancer software. The results confirm the existence of 15 themes: fan, tour, stadium, team, museum, room, staff, game, (best) place, ticket, seating, recommend(ation), food, shop and attraction. Most researchers have examined stadium tours from a supply-side perspective. The present study’s Citation: Brochado, A.; Brito, C.; Bouchet, A.; Oliveira, F. Dimensions aim was, therefore, to contribute to the existing literature by analysing stadium tours’ dimensions of Football Stadium and Museum from the visitors’ point of view.

  • Juventus Football Club: from a Soccer to an Entertainment Company
    LUISS TEACHING CASES Juventus Football Club: From a Soccer to an Entertainment Company Alessandro Zattoni Luiss University Rumen Pozharliev Luiss University TEACHING CASES 2020 ISBN 978-88-6105-575-9 Introduction The season 2018/19 finishes with a bittersweet flavor. The 20th of April Juventus wins – for the 35th time1 and for the 8th straight - the Italian premier league (Serie A). As the team has knocked out of both the Champions league in the quarterfinals by Ajax and the Italian cup in the eight-fi- nals by Atalanta, it is time for Juventus’ president Andrea Agnelli and the top managers to think about the future. After few weeks of doubts and rumors, the 17th of May Juventus announces that Massimiliano Allegri will not be the coach of the team in the next season. The day after Juventus organizes a highly emotional press meeting with the president and the coach to communicate the decision. After one month, the 16th of June Juventus announces that the new trainer will be Maurizio Sarri, previously coach of Napoli (2015-18) and of Chelsea (2018/19). The new coach – that won the last European League with Chelsea - has a 3-years contract and the ambition to lead the club to new victories. During the Summer, Juventus buys and sells several players, with a net loss of about €90 million (=-181,7+92). Among the new players there are talents like Matthijs de Ligt, Adrien Rabiot, Aaron Ramsey and Danilo. At the same time, some promising players like Cancelo, Kean and Spinazzola leave the team. Juventus’ objective is to continue to win and to launch another assault to the Champions League, but also to further develop the business model and to increase its brand awareness over the world.
