Методы: формальные модели спроса и предложения на рынке труда, комбинаторный анализ, статистические методы. Результаты: в статье рассматривается порядок регулирования трудовых отношений с иностранными легионерами в спорте. Определяется, что в большинстве стран регулирование предполагает установление ограничения числа легионеров, которые могут быть заявлены на сезон или находиться на поле.В статье проанализированы подходы к мерам регулирования трансферного рынка, а также аргументы сторонников и противников лимита на легионеров. На основании анализа литературы дается оценка эффективности мер регулирования трансферного рынка с точки зрения экономики, а также результативность спортивных мероприятий.В работе проверяется гипотеза о неэффективности лимита как инструмента повышения качества игры российских игроков на основе ряда показателей, таких как результативность сборной, количество легионеров, их игровые показатели и др. Оценка проводилась на основе построения ряда теоретических моделей: 1) модель повышения зарплат футболистов; 2) модель свободы выбора игроков у тренера и 3) модель отбора качественных игроков. На основе построения моделей опровергается гипотеза о быстром «эффекте побед» от введения лимита - первые значимые результаты от регулирования появились в России не ранее чем через 10 лет. Делается предположение, что лимит может быть объяснен с помощью модели Дж. Акелрофа: контролируя количество приезжающих футболистов, можно привлекать более квалифицированных зарубежных игроков в национальную лигу. Анализ опыта российских команд показал, что лимит не привел: 1) к повышению качества приезжающих футболистов по их игровым характеристикам;2) к увеличению игрового времени игроков российской сборной на поле в национальном чемпионате; 3) к повышению конкурентоспособности российской сборной команды на международных турнирах; 4) к увеличению инвестиций в юношеский футбол, однако вызвал рост заработной платы футболистов, причем как российских, так и иностранных. Научная новизна: применение экономического подхода к анализу трансферного рынка позволило получить научные выводы о влиянии лимита и обосновать основные аргументационные доводы, используемые в общественной дискуссии.Практическая значимость: основные результаты работы могут быть использованы при принятии решения о корректировке уровня лимита на легионеров в преддверии проведения чемпионата мира по футболу в России.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Objective: to estimate the efficiency of limit for legionaries as a tool for regulating the Russian transfer market. Methods: formal methods of the labor market supply and demand model, combinatory analysis, statistical methods. Results: the article views the order of regulation of the labor relations with foreign legionaries in sports. It is defined that in most countries regulation implies limitation of the number of legionaries who can be claimed for the season or be on the field. The article analyzes the approaches to the transfer market regulation methods, as well as the arguments for and against limiting the number of legionaries. Basing on the analysis of literature, the author estimates the efficiency of transfer market regulating from the economics viewpoint, as well as the results of sports events.The author checks the hypothesis about the inefficiency of the limit as a tool for increasing the quality of the Russian players’ performance, based on a number of indicators, such as the inefficiency of the national team’s performance, number of legionaries, their performance, etc. The estimation was carried out on the basis of a number of theoretical models: 1) model of increasing the footballers’ salaries; 2) model of free selection of players by the coach and 3) model of quality players’ selection. Basing on these models, the hypothesis was disproved of the rapid “victory effect” from the limit - the first significant results of the regulation appeared in Russia not earlier than after 10 years. It is supposed that the limit can be explained by G. Akerlof’s model: by controlling the number of legionaries, it is possible to attract more qualified foreign players into the national league. Analysis of the Russian teams’ experience showed that the limit has not resulted in: 1) the increase of the legionaries’ quality of performance; 2) the increase of the playing time of the Russian players on the field in the national championship; 3) the increase of competitiveness of the Russian national team in international tournaments; 4) the increase of investments into youth football, but has caused the increase of both Russian and foreign footballers’ salaries.Scientific novelty: applying the economic approach to the transfer market analysis allowed to obtain scientific conclusions about the influence of the limit and to substantiate the main argumentative reasons used in the public discussion.Practical significance: the main conclusions of the article can be used in making decisions about correcting the limit for legionaries on the eve of hosting the World Cup in Russia.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>экономика и управление народным хозяйством</kwd><kwd>экономика футбола</kwd><kwd>лимит на легионеров</kwd><kwd>рынок труда</kwd><kwd>футбольные лиги</kwd><kwd>клубы</kwd><kwd>трансферный рынок</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Hatton T.
