Bloomsbury presents Who Owns Football?: The Changing Face of Club Ownership by Nick Miller, read by Homer Todiwala

Leading football journalist Nick Miller lifts the lid on football club ownership: the defining issue shaping the modern game.

The landscape of football club ownership has changed. Long gone are the days when clubs were dominated by local factory proprietors or millionaire boyhood fans. This clear, insightful and thought-provoking guide provides serious football fans with a unique and timely account of modern football ownership: the central issue shaping the game.

Fascinating for supporters looking to understand their club’s and its rivals’ strategy and methods, and those curious about finance and power in football, Who Owns Football? reveals how the game's custodians operate. Football club owners can take teams to the heights of the Champions League or financial oblivion. Still, in a world of super leagues, rapidly escalating wages, transfer fees, Financial Fair Play and an increasingly profitable women’s game, they tread a precarious tightrope. This book relates the jeopardy, strategies, transformative successes and horror stories as it uncovers the complex world of football finance.

Who Owns Football? lifts the lid on the inner workings of modern club ownership. Full of captivating tales, fascinating characters, high finance and shady deals, it examines the forces at play and discusses how today’s football club ownership models face up to an impending crisis in the game.©2024 Nick Miller (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Fußball Sport
