Sports law & global economy: Millions in investments in Saudi football - Saudi Pro League: how do transfers of players in Saudi Arabia work?

Recently, we have witnessed spectacular transfers to clubs from the Saudi Pro League. Who among us has not heard of top football players contracted by Al-Hilal Saudi Club, Al-Nassr Saudi Club, Al-Ittihad Club, or Abha Football Club?

The development of sports in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia raises several interesting questions:

  • what are the motivations behind investing in Saudi football?
  • do the authorities and clubs in Saudi Arabia implement any strategy?
  • what is hidden under #VisitSaudi?
  • what connects Leo Messi, Ruben Neves and Czeslaw Michniewicz?
  • what is sportswashing and is there something wrong with it?
  • how is the sports market regulated in Saudi Arabia - does Saudi Arabic sports law exist and how is the financing of sports in this country?
  • what is the role of the Saudi Ministry of Sport and the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) in the development of football in Saudi Arabia?
  • what are the circumstances of concluding sports contracts, especially football contracts with Saudi Pro League clubs?

[Sports law] Sports Litigation & Arbitration in Poland

Settlement of legal disputes in sport, in particular those of a property nature, which can be colloquially referred to as "vindication in sport" or "sports vindication", is generally carried out in arbitration (arbitration proceedings), referred to as sports arbitration. In many cases, in order to properly resolve disputes, sports organizations have established specialized permanent arbitration courts (permanent arbitration courts) - Arbitration Tribunals, which by definition know the norms of sports law and understand the specificity of sport, which is to ensure proper recognition of cases and settlement of disputes in sport. The main purpose of recognition of the disputes in the field of broadly understood sports law relations by Arbitration Tribunals, i.e. excluding the jurisdiction of common courts, is the speed and efficiency of examining such disputes and the fairness of arbitration proceedings, in particular due to the knowledge of the regulations of sports organizations and associations referred to as sports law or more broadly as lex sportiva. It should be noted that the market of legal services, attorneys representing the parties (replacing the parties) in proceedings in sports law disputes, has also educated lawyers specializing in sports law, or law firms practicing in the field of sports law (sports law firms). Sports law also includes standards regulating the recognition of legal disputes in sport, in terms of the system, i.e. determining the bodies competent to consider such disputes - Arbitration Tribunals (permanent arbitration courts).Arbitration Tribunals can be classified as: 1) domestic and foreign, 2) operating within a given sport discipline (e.g. football or basketball). Sports law, sports law in poland, polish sports law, polish sports lawyer, sports lawyer in poland, disputes in sport poland, poland lex sportiva, sports law poland , football disputes poland, football court poland, footbnall litigation poland, law in sport poland, Legal disputes in sport and the resolution of legal disputes in sports (sports law, lex sportiva) is generally carried out in arbitration (ADR - Alternative Dispute Resolution), referred to as modification of sports arbitration. However, this is not a rule without exceptions. It should be emphasized that the main or most popular sports disciplines (basketball and football) have been developed by specialized permanent arbitration courts such as PSP (PZPN - Polish FA - Football Arbitration Court), Football Tribunal on FIFA: DRC (Dispute Resolution Chamber) , PSC (Players' Status Chamber), AC (Agents Chamber), STA (Polish Basketball Federation Arbitration Tribunal). Moreover, in Poland cases are also heard by the Arbitration Tribunal at PKOL (Polish Olympic Committee), and internationally by CAS / TAS - the Sports Arbitration Court, also known as the Sports Arbitration Court with its seat in Lausanne and branches in New York and Sydney.
