Football & law

The legal risks associated with professional sport are wide-ranging. To mark the football championships, we provide an overview of compliance-related risk areas – ranging from corruption, doping, betting fraud and match-fixing, and advertising, to the awarding of sporting events and unethical behaviour by coaches and fans – and highlight specific compliance measures that should be established to ensure fair play is practised even off the pitch.
