A shared dream of many, and possibly even yours, is to enter the realms of professional football. Boys and girls will grow up idolizing their favourite players and wishing to emulate their success. Sadly, for many these dreams will never become a reality.
This, however, doesn't have to be the end of your footballing journey. For those looking to work in the footballing world, there are numerous opportunities to be involved with some of the best clubs. The football industry is thriving with the European football market being worth £21.9 billion. This article will explore some of the top jobs available to you.

In 2019, 90% of graduates of the course found work within 6 months of completion, with two-thirds being in the sporting world.
When fully qualified as a coach, there will be opportunities to move into
amateur or low-level professional sides. It may be that you work in youth or
academy football as opposed to going straight into senior football. As you gain
experience you will be able to look for higher ranking or profile teams.
Alternately, you may choose to go down a specialist coaching route in something
that you specialize in e.g., goalkeeping.
