  • CSR in Swedish Football
    CSR in Swedish football A multiple case study of four clubs in Allsvenskan By: Lina Nilsson 2018-10-09 Supervisors: Marcus Box, Lars Vigerland and Erik Borg Södertörn University | School of Social Sciences Master Thesis 30 Credits Business Administration | Spring term 2018 ABSTRACT The question of companies’ social responsibility taking, called Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), has been widely debated in research since the 1900s. However, the research connecting CSR to sport was not started until the beginning of the 2000s, meaning that there are still many gaps in sport research that has to be filled. One such gap is research on CSR in a Swedish football context. Accordingly, the purpose of the study was firstly to examine how and why Swedish football clubs – organised as non-profit associations or sports corporations – work with CSR, and secondly whether or not there was a difference in the CSR work of the two organisational forms. A multiple case study of four clubs in Allsvenskan was carried out, examining the CSR work – meaning the CSR concept and activities, the motives for engaging in CSR and the role of the stakeholders – in detail. In addition, the CSR actions of all clubs of Allsvenskan were briefly investigated. The findings of the study showed that the four clubs of the multiple case study had focused their CSR concepts in different directions and performed different activities. As a consequence, they had developed different competences and competitive advantages. Furthermore, the findings suggested that the motives for engaging in CSR were a social agenda, pressure from stakeholders and financial motives.

  • Juventus Football Club: from a Soccer to an Entertainment Company
    LUISS BUSINESS 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.

First, in March, at the next ordinary UEFA Congress, the terms of six members of the UEFA Executive Committee come to an end, three of whom are not standing for re-election. In addition, the seat that has been vacant since the death of Mathieu Sprengers has to be filled, as do two additional seats, giving the Executive Committee an unprecedented injection of new blood. Then in May, the current club competition cycle concludes. In the UEFA Champions League, it will be the last final to be played on a Wednesday, thereby ending a tradition that dates back to the creation of the competition. In the UEFA Cup, it will be the last final ever under that name before the competition becomes the UEFA Europa League and takes on a brand-new format. This year also heralds the end of an era for the UEFA Women’s Cup, which is set to change format and be linked to the UEFA Champions League, with the finals of the two competitions to take place in future in the same city during the same week.

  • Club Licensing Benchmarking Report
    The European Club Footballing Landscape Club Licensing Benchmarking Report Financial Year 2018 Club Licensing Benchmarking Report: Financial Year 2018 Club Licensing Benchmarking Report: Financial Year 2018 Foreword Welcome to the eleventh edition of the UEFA Club Licensing Benchmarking Report, which again focuses on football finances but also other off-the-field trends in the European football ecosystem. This year UEFA presented its new strategy, Together for the Future of Football, a blueprint for future-proofing UEFA and European football. One of the strategy’s key policies of optimising intelligence and deepening knowledge for better decision-making chimes perfectly with this report. The benchmarking report’s thorough analysis of the finances and more of more than 700 top-division clubs provides a hugely valuable appreciation of the successes of and challenges facing European club football; essential information for future decision- making. The headline figure is a second successive year of overall profitability for European top-division clubs. As financial performance has improved, the clubs’ financial position has become significantly healthier, with club net assets increasing from less than €2 billion to more than €9 billion in the space of a decade, a testament to the success of UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations, the stable European football ecosystem and sustained and sensible investment. Equally encouraging is the revelation in the report’s new section on training infrastructure that almost 80% of clubs have invested in training facility improvements in the past five years. It is also welcome to see the report widen its scope to include women’s football this year.

  • UEFA"Direct #189 (28.02.2020)
    No. 189 No.189 • March/April 2020 No.189 HOW IT ALL BEGAN EDITORIAL Theodore Theodoridis UEFA General Secretary UEFA CONTINUES TO EMPOWER AND INNOVATE IN WOMEN’S FOOTBALL hose of us who work in football can sometimes forget the magic of the game that inspired us to love it in the first place. Of course, players do not learn to love and play the game just by magic. It is UEFA’s T duty as European football’s governing body to empower people to play the game, and, through the unique UEFA-Disney Playmakers programme for girls aged five to eight, we will open up football to an audience not yet engaged with our sport. Inspired by storytelling in films such as Incredibles 2, the programme is the first-ever major pan-European grassroots football programme for girls and will be rolled out in seven countries this year. The aim is to create an environment where imaginations can run wild as an iconic Disney story is told through movement and play. This unique programme can be the spark for a more active generation of football-loving girls.
