This year, the world watched as 12 of Europe’s richest and most famous soccer clubs attempted to form an exclusive Super League.

The effort collapsed in spectacular fashion, and in the process, drew the near unanimous ire of the world’s 3.5 billion soccer fans.

We’ll tackle the Super League’s rise and fall and ask: is this saga, at its heart, a battle between globalization and nationalism?

Join expert Stefan Szymanski to explore the role that the American sports model played in the creation of the Super League, the global populist backlash, and what this means for the future of the world’s most popular sport.

Featuring
Dr. Stefan Szymanski, Stephen J. Galetti Professor of Sport Management at the University of Michigan, expert the economics and business of sport, and author of Soccernomics
