"I would like to take this opportunity to explain why I voted in favour of this resolution in this debate, which took place during the World Cup in South Africa. As a former football player who even wrote her university thesis on club management, I could not resist taking part today. I believe that this resolution has managed to strike the right balance between the need to maintain the independent regulation of football, which is also dictated by the cultural and social role it plays, and the need to guarantee legal certainty for its economic aspects. I also very much welcome the fact that it makes reference to the fight against money laundering, racism and violence in stadiums. I believe that Parliament must use this report to express itself in a unanimous, clear and decisive manner on these issues. I also think it is good that emphasis has been placed on the employment and social issues linked to professional football. Finding a balanced solution, in particular for regulating agents’ activities, will not be easy, and Parliament must work to facilitate dialogue between the Commission, UEFA and FIFA in order to find a solution that takes everyone’s interests into account."@en1
