Katarina Pijetlovic is the first author to address the issue of
breakaway leagues in football and their treatment under EU law. In
this book she guides the reader through EU sports law, the
specificities of the sporting industry and the problems and power
struggles in European football governance in the context of the
breakaway threats by elite clubs. In order to analyse the legality
of UEFA clauses that restrict the formation of such breakaway
structures, the author first provides a progressive interpretation
of the applicable EU sports law and an in-depth analytical review
of EU sports cases decided under internal market and competition
provisions, including a novel perspective on the UEFA home-grown
rule and the Bosman case. Thereafter, she sets out an original
theory of convergence between TFEU provisions on competition and
the internal market in the light of sporting exceptions. Finally,
in applying the legal principles thus outlined Katarina Pijetlovic
explores the legality of the restrictive UEFA clauses and the case
for the formation of alternative leagues in European football under
EU sports law. A number of surprising outcomes emerge from this
analytical process. Conversely, she also tests the largely
neglected issue of the legality of forming a breakaway league by
the European elite football clubs. The systematic way in which the
reader is guided through EU sports law and the legal issues under
consideration makes the book accessible for EU lawyers as well as
non-EU sports lawyers, on both an academic and a practitioner's
level. Katarina Pijetlovic holds licentiate and doctoral degrees in
EU sports law from the University of Helsinki. The book appears in
the ASSER International Sports Law Series, under the editorship of
Dr. David McArdle, Prof. Ben Van Rompuy and Marco van der Harst
