Alleged Götze ban: Can a club leave a player out of important matches?

Employment law assessment by Dr. Nils Bronhofer

In the article published by TZ, Dr. Nils Bronhofer assesses whether a club may leave a player out of important matches without an objective reason. The focus is on the player’s right to contractual employment and the question of whether such exclusion may be unlawful under employment law. For affected players, the article shows that employment-related rights also apply in professional sport and that arbitrary disadvantages may be legally challengeable.
