Football

Football has a global appeal beyond that of any other sport. The increase in football’s revenues over the past 15 years has facilitated the transformation of the business - particularly in Europe’s largest leagues – and the impact of football extends far beyond the action on the pitch each week.

We provide business advisory services to a range of clubs, leagues, governing bodies, stadia developers, event organisers, commercial partners, financiers and investors throughout the world of football.

Our vast experience and deep understanding of football’s business drivers, the regulatory environment, and the stakeholder map means we add measurable value to any project from day one. Clients trust that we will deliver quality business advice and assistance.

Our annual publications also illustrate Deloitte’s credentials and our long term commitment to the football business.

The English Premier League remained the highest revenue generating league (€2.5 billion). However, a greater focus is required on cost control.
