BRUSSELS, July 9 : The German Football Association’s rules governing the activities of football players’ agents do not breach EU antitrust rules if such restrictions serve the public interest, Europe’s top court said on Thursday.
The rules, “may prove to be necessary in order to pursue one or more legitimate objectives in the public interest which are not, in themselves, anti-competitive,” the Luxembourg-based Court of Justice of the European Union said.
