Reportedly FIFA’s New Multi-Club Ownership Rules Could Impact Women’s Football Growth Specifically Michelle Kang

As we have seen a lot in men’s football especially around Crystal Palace and Lyon about people having majority ownership or shares in multiple teams and that these teams cannot face off in competitions this could seriously impact Michelle Kang as FIFA have made some new developments in this area, which could stint the growth of the women’s game if sh cannot invest.

 

I understand it, and it makes sense in the Premier League. Still, the women’s game and lower league men’s teams are not at that same level of sustainability;  fewer people want to invest, so if you find someone who wants to invest, let them; otherwise, no one else will, and teams could fall apart. The people who invest in these sides want to help and are not just in it for the money.

 

Spanish publication El Mundo reported that FIFA is set to introduce regulations restricting multi-club ownership.

 

FIFA wants to prevent an internal market amongst teams controlled by the same owner.

 

FIFA wants to ensure job stability and long-term contracts for athletes and staff by implementing this.

 

They also said FIFA aims to prohibit loans and event transfers between clubs in the same ownership group.

 

This could mean the power of Kang and other multi-club ownership could very well come to an end
