Two of the biggest issues in football has been the growing inequality between the haves and have-nots and the lack of profitability of constituent clubs. With the costs of adapting stadia, additional medical checks and contingency adding up, many clubs are facing serious difficulties unless something changes to the structure of the game. Olivier Jarosz MANAGING PARTNER, CLUB AFFAIRS Heike Ulrich EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ASSOCIATIONS, CLUBS AND COmpETITIONS, DEUTSCHER FUSSBALL-BUND E.V. Rebecca smith GLOBAL EXCECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE WOMEN’s GAME, COPA90 1:00PM-1:30pm GMT SHOULD POLITICS BE BROUGHT TO THE PITCH? Football has traditionally shied away from political affiliation wherever possible, to maintain its position as a uniting sport. Recent social movements have blurred the lines on what constitutes political messaging and brings into question the future neutrality of the various leagues, clubs and federations. What should or shouldn’t be permitted given football’s immense social and cultural power? What will that mean for the game’s position as a leveller? emanuel macedo de medeiros CEO, SIGA mike geddes CHIEF PURPOSE OFFICER, OAKLAND ROOTS SC francisco javier quintana FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY, BOCA JUNIORS ATHLETIC CLUB jeff rueter STAFF WRITER, THE ATHLETIC 1:30PM-2:10PM GMT IS A contract worth the paper that it`S written on?
