The multi-disciplinary team has worked for decades for its large roster of English Premier League (EPL) and English Football League (EFL) clients in the following areas: football dispute resolution including advice on contentious regulatory, commercial and disciplinary matters; mergers & acquisitions of football clubs (both buy and sell side); commercial contracts (including media and sponsorship agreements (club, athlete and brand side)); regulatory and governance matters; and sports finance and banking instruments.
The team has advised on some of the most high-profile complex legal issues in the football industry and has completed more than 60 football M&A transactions – which amounts to a large proportion of the club sale market in the English Premier League (EPL) and English Football League (EFL). Additionally, the team acts on a weekly basis for a significant number of football clubs throughout the EPL and EFL on a wide range of contentious, disciplinary and commercial matters.
The arrival of the team underscores Wiggin's commitment to the sports sector. The firm's existing long-standing sports client portfolio includes prominent names such as DAZN, FIFA, Racecourse Media Group, Premiership Rugby, EPCR and Formula E.
