“…In general, research has shown that human and structural capital are significant factors for market value. Therefore, we believe that footballers, considered intangible assets, are the ideal subjects for studies on intellectual capital, since their value takes into account their skills, the clubs they play for, and the relationship with supporters and teammates (Ricci et al, 2015).…”

Football clubs are traditional institutions with the particularity of having the main characters of their successes as intangible assets, that is, their players. The aim of this work is to analyse the determinants of the market values using intellectual and structural capital indicators as explanatory variables. Descriptive statistics and panel data model estimates were used in the analyses to control the footballers’ fixed effects, the club's fixed effects and the effects of player-year and club-year interactions. Results confirmed that footballers’ market value is determined by a set of variables that can be explained by components of human capital (one’s skills), structural capital (infrastructure that supports human capital). Understanding the players’ pricing can help both clubs and players to improve their management and increase the possibility of financial success.

The purpose of this study is to examine the intellectual capital efficiency of football clubs in the UEFA Champion League between 2010 and 2019. We measure the intellectual capital efficiency of each football club through Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC) method developed by Pulic (1998, 2004), Ghosh and Mondal (2009), Yalama (2013), Ozkan, Cakan, and Kayacan (2017). Using a sample of 10 football clubs from 7 countries, we find that almost all clubs use their intellectual capital efficiently with great coefficients. We also document that human capital, as the core of intellectual capital, has a positive impact on structural capital. Our finding is significant for sports managers to make strategic management of intellectual sources to create value in the football industry. It suggests that football clubs should pay more attention to intellectual capital like fan loyalty and talented players. Meanwhile, it helps the sports industry to play a great role of human capital in intellectual capital and to increase the competitive advantage of the enterprise.
