This 24^th edition includes a Special Report dedicated to the re-regulation of the European professional football labour market in the aftermath of Royal Antwerp FC, Diarra and Seraing. Bringing together the contributions first published in Football Legal’s online Series, the Report examines the main questions now facing football: the balance between player mobility and contractual stability, the future of solidarity mechanisms, incentives for youth development, collective dialogue and dispute resolution compatible with EU public policy.

The edition also includes a Focus on multi-club ownership, which has become one of the defining features of modern football investment. The contributions assess the integrity, control, transparency and competition issues raised by MCO structures, from UEFA and CAS case-law to South American regulatory approaches and national developments.

In the Perspectives section, you will find articles on artificial intelligence, digital identity, anti-money laundering obligations, corporate investment models, unilateral extension options, dressing-room violence, strict liability and racism in football.

You will also find our regular selection of recent CAS and Swiss Federal Tribunal case-law, together with international and national updates from several jurisdictions.
