Abstract/Description:

This chapter considers the regulation of transfers, agents and minors in sport within the EU. In doing so, the chapter discusses the efficacy of the regulatory regime and it assesses its compatibility with key provisions of EU law. While the chapter aims to consider all regulated sports, its focus is on football, which has the most sophisticated and developed regulatory regimes in relation to these areas. Further, where national regulations are looked at in any detail, the discussion will centre on English law and regulation, reflecting the expertise of the author.
