The Migrant Wage Premium in Professional Football: A Superstar Effect?
利用职业足球运动员和球队的七年面板数据，研究发现移民球员存在显著的工资溢价，这种溢价部分源于其巨星效应，表现为对球队表现和观众上座率的影响。
Summary Using panel data on professional footballers and their teams over a seven year period we find a substantial wage premium for migrants which persists within teams and is only partially accounted for by players' on‐field labour productivity. We show that the differential partly reflects the superstar status of migrant workers. This superstar effect is apparent in migrant effects on team performance and crowd attendance.
