UEFA Financial Fair Play chief to join Leaders debate

Jean-Luc Dehaene, the chairman of UEFA’s Financial Fair Play Control Panel, will participate in a discussion about football finance at the fourth annual Leaders in Football conference later this year.

Dehaene, the former Belgian Prime Minister, has been described by UEFA president Michel Platini as the man in charge of the economic destiny of European football, with the Financial Fair Play system set to be phased in over the next three years.

Dehaene joins several big name signings for Leaders in Football, with Football Association chairman David Bernstein and Greg Clarke, chairman of the Football League, having been confirmed as speakers in recent weeks alongside FIFA Executive Committee members Dr Michel D'Hooghe and Jim Boyce.

Leaders in Football will take place within the Leaders Sports Summit, which will bring together five leading conferences including Sponsorship, Digital Sport, Performance and the business of Horse Racing, over two days on October 5-6 at the home of Barclays Premier League club Chelsea.
