You must have heard the saying that football is a business. Football is a big business that is very profitable but it is not easy to get to that spot and without experience and plan you cannot succeed in investing in football. Investing in football has many risks and we must identify them before investing. Let's have a little conversation about it

There are many risks associated while investing in the football club business. Some of the common ones being major injuries incurred by the footballers that can cost alot of money, constant losses due to inability to win trophies.

Investing in a soccer team can be profitable. You get revenues from ticket sales, sponsorship, broadcasting rights, selling merchandise items related to the team. That said, there are also risks with such investment. If the team is not performing well, or some of the best players go to another team, you may lose income from sponsorship or ticket sales.

There are many risks if we invest in soccer, whether we invest directly in buying a team or forming a new team that requires very large capital, also indirectly if we only buy shares in a soccer team, especially if our soccer team is weak and always loses. every match, so there is less sponsorship or advertising, and of course you as an investor will lose big.

It can be profitible but you need a lot of knowledge and things like that also it's extremely exspensive and it would cost you a lot of money many football teams lose a lot even tho you invested a lot of money

you're right. For example, Paulo Dybala has always been injured in Juve's important games, and the managers decided not to work with him anymore because he was not good enough for them (of course, my personal opinion is different and I like Dybala).

This is not a risk factor at all when it comes to investing in football. Player purchases don't incur losses to a football club whether the player performs or not. Honestly speaking, investing in football has no risk factor if you are investing in well developed and structured leageus. It is a sure guarantee that you would always get your returns.

Are you sure? You know that if a player gets injured the value goes down and you get paid less to sell that player? And imagine that this player is almost 30 years old. His price is greatly reduced. I have seen many documentaries about this and it is not what you say

I have no intention of investing in football. The football clubs in our country are private companies where the public cannot invest. If you want to build your own football club, you need a lot fo money.

Investing in football can also be risky, you could buy a particular player for thousands of dollars, only for them not to be able to perform or in worse they get injured.

There are so many ways of investing into football. Starting it as a business where you have your own team is great. That is easier to manage. If you invest in it through gambling, you put yourself at so much risk.

There are many companies that sponsor football teams and even invest money in jerseys of players. When the team loses, the value of such products also decrease. The same goes for cricket teams as well.

Football business is very profitable and you are surely going to make money if you invest in a football club that knows how to manage their club and knows how to sought for profit

Big risk is buy players, sign long term contract and they player get injured. Some injuries can cause player be out for 6 months. Then he need again adoption time to field and players.

You are right.
The player will be injured and he will not be able to perform. People who love the player and also buy tickets because of him will not buy because their favorite player is not on the field.

It is true, because you need a lot of funds to invest in football and it also carries a huge level of risk as well.

Every business is risky and this is what everyone of us should know. There are even times when you will sign up a new player and the player will not be playing well. That is like a loss

There have been cases of many sponsors going bankrupt after buying a team in an auction. When the team loses continuously, you may lose money as a result perhaps.

You are right and I think this has happened to a lot of football clubs or some organisations so it is very important for you to make plans and also for you to make analysis before and after investing
