The effects of the Bosman-case on the professional football leagues with special regard to the top-five leagues

Más información sobre el libro

The thesis examines the impact of the Bosman ruling on European football, particularly focusing on how it transformed player recruitment and competition within the top five leagues: England, Italy, Spain, Germany, and France. Highlighting a pivotal moment when Energie Cottbus fielded 11 non-German players, it underscores the significant shift towards a more international player base in clubs. The research aims to analyze these changes, revealing the broader implications for the structure and dynamics of soccer in Europe post-Bosman.
