Özet:

 

Soccer is perhaps the most loved game in the world, filled with passion both on  and off the field. Literature suggests that the English Premier League (EPL) is one  of the most sought after championship in soccer. The study investigates the  relationship between player valuation and the bargaining positions of clubs in the  English Premier League (EPL). A comprehensive literature analysis illustrates  that the bargaining positions of clubs should consider factors such as previous  seasons’ financial performance, league performance, managerial change and  prestige of playing. A quantitative research approach using causality was used to  determine the influence of the bargaining position on players’ valuation in the  EPL. The sample of the study comprises EPL transferred players (n=409) during  the period summer 2012 and winter 2015 transfer windows. In determining the  results; correlation analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were conducted  on the data. The results of the correlation analysis indicate a strong association  between the bargaining position of the buying and lower association between the  bargaining positions of the selling club in the influence of player valuation. In the  analysis of the results of the ANOVA the strength of a relationship had a variance  span from non-existent, too weak, to very strong. The ultimate conclusion of this  study based on the results is that valuation of EPL players are often influenced by  the bargaining positions of buying clubs. The study contributes to the body of  knowledge on valuation of EPL players proving that it is demand-driven,  therefore the bargaining position of buying clubs is the determinant.
