This week, the government referred one hundred companies to be investigated by HMRC under the suspicion that they might be breaking the law through their use of unpaid staff. The use of interns in professional football, however, seems to be on the rise at the moment, though, with nine Premier and Football League clubs – Dagenham & Redbridge, Wycombe Wanderers, West Bromwich Albion, Arsenal, Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Reading, Wigan Athletic, Watford and Cardiff City – all currently advertising unpaid internships on the pages of UK Sport’s website at the time of writing. That, of course, is the Arsenal owned by Stan Kroenke (estimated net worth: £1.8bn), the Cardiff City owned by Vincent Tan (estimated net worth: £757m), the West Bromwich Albion that is owned by Jeremy Peace (estimated net worth: £40m), the Wigan Athletic owned by Dave Whelan (net worth: £200 million), the Reading FC owned by Anton Zingarevich and John Madejski (combined net worth: £635m)… and so on, and so forth.
