Abstract:

This paper will focus on the backbone aspect of professional football: player recruitment. Every professional football club needs to create the best network of players to make them winners both on the pitch and off the pitch. Recruitment process has been proven to be a double-edged sword in terms of gaining competitive advantages due to the various risks that can come from a transfer decision. Therefore, the study will attempt to discuss the variety of different methods to minimize these uncertainties. Moreover, this paper attempts to employ qualitative methods to explain how professional football clubs in Vietnam can gain competitive advantages through the recruitment strategy. Strategic human resources management would be used as an analytical tool to create a link between the governance of the club and the recruitment strategy. At the end of the study, the author will try to propose a recruitment strategy for a specific football club, Pho Hien.
