A think tank specialised in Football Law
« The AIAF is the first ‘laboratory of ideas’ created by lawyers specialized in football law ».
« Just like the major international football tournaments, we want to create a place where different legal cultures can come together in a spirit of exchange and sharing. Analyzing, comparing, putting forward ideas, these are the main motivations which have led us to create this international think tank ».
