Abstract
Purpose: This paper uses macro-level theories based on the equilibrium between the exploration and exploitation of resources in an organisation to examine the association between turnover and performance through the analysis of a professional football (soccer) team in the Premier League, namely Manchester United Football Club.
Design/methodology/approach: This study compiles historical data for 24 seasons of the Premier League between 1984-1985 and 2008-2009. Using these data, we define measures of performance and player turnover.
