Football
The Lisbon Treaty provides for sport as a supporting action in a new Article 6(e) TFEU and 165 TFEU. The EU can make legally binding decisions without harmonising national laws.
In 1995, the EU Court decided in the Bosman case that professional football constituted an economic activity as defined under the EU treaties and was therefore subject to EU laws governing the free movement of workers.
