This methodology has proved to be useful in measuring the economic value of intangible talent in professional sport and in other entertainment industries. In our estimations – and in the elaboration of the rankings – two elements are taken into consideration: popularity (degree of interest aroused between the fans and the general public) and media value (the level of attention that the mass media pays). The calculations may be made at specific points in time during a season, or accumulating the news generated during a particular period: weeks, months, years, etc. Additionally, the homogeneity amongst the measurements allows for a comparison of the media value status of individuals, teams, institutions, etc. Together with the measurements and rankings, our database allows us to conduct analyses on a wide variety of economic and business problems: estimates of the market value (or “fair value”) of players’ transfer fees; calculation of the brand value of individuals, teams and leagues; valuation of the economic return from alliances between sponsors; image rights contracts of athletes and teams; and a great deal more.

After striking a partnership agreement with FC Barcelona, which made Lassa Tyres the Main Partner of all the indoor sports (i.e. basketball, handball, futsal and roller hockey teams) as well as the Official Partner of the Football Club for the next four seasons until 30 June 2019, Lassa Tyres signed the brand’s first personal football player endorsement agreement with Turkish National Football Team captain and midfielder, Arda Turan,. The signing of the endorsement agreement between the Brisa company, the seventh biggest tyre manufacturer in Europe and the owner of the Lassa Tyres brand, and Arda Turan took place on Thursday 6th evening in İstanbul in the presence of Hakan Bayman, CEO of Brisa and Arda Turan. The endorsement agreement grants Lassa Tyres exclusive endorsement rights in advertising, PR and promotional products with Arda Turan in addition to partnership rights that Lassa Tyres already have with FC Barcelona and its players like Messi, Neymar Jr, Luis Suárez, Iniesta, Juan Carlos Navarro, Víctor Tomàs, Sergio Lozano and Aitor Egurrola, among others, who will be taking part in the promotional campaigns of Lassa Tyres. Halit Şensoy, Director of Lassa International Sales and Marketing said: “Lassa Tyres and Arda Turan are a perfect fit. We believe that Arda Turan is highly qualified in terms of increasing our brand awareness internationally both with his personal image and with his role in FC Barcelona as he is now not only a Turkish celebrity but a very well-known and respected global talent.
