About the Book

Football is no longer just local.

It is global. Networked. Consolidated.

Over the past decade, powerful ownership groups have quietly reshaped the structure of the sport. From City Football Group's global empire to Red Bull's vertically integrated football machine, a new model has emerged: multi-club ownership.

But what does this really mean for the game?

In The Multi-Club Model, Daniel Hartley delivers a rigorously researched, evidence-based investigation into how global football conglomerates are transforming:

  • Player development and talent pipelines

  • Transfer markets and internal loan systems

  • Financial sustainability and related-party transactions

  • UEFA integrity rules and regulatory reform

  • Club identity and supporter culture

Drawing on UEFA regulations, official financial disclosures, Court of Arbitration for Sport rulings, and independent industry analysis, this book explains how more than 200 clubs across Europe and beyond are now connected through shared ownership structures.

You will discover:

  • How City Football Group built a five-continent portfolio

  • Why Red Bull's model prioritises brand integration over tradition

  • How internal transfers raise concerns about market distortion

  • The growing tension between regulation and corporate expansion

  • Whether smaller clubs are being saved - or absorbed

  • The legal battles shaping the next decade of European football

This is not a sensationalist account. It is a structured, analytical guide to one of the most significant transformations in modern sport.

For fans of football finance, governance, sports law, and the business of the Premier League, this book provides clarity in an increasingly complex landscape.

If you want to understand where football ownership is heading - and what it means for competitive integrity - this is essential reading.
