Overview

Brera Holdings is an Irish holding company focused on MCO and expanding its global portfolio of men’s and women’s sports clubs with increased opportunities to earn tournament prizes, gain sponsorships, obtain transfer fees and provide other professional football- and sports-related consulting services.

We seek to build on the legacy and brand of Brera FC, the first football club that we acquired in July 2022. Brera FC, known as “The Third Team of Milan,” is an amateur football association which has been building an alternative football legacy since its founding in 2000. In March 2023, we expanded to Africa with the establishment of Brera Tchumene FC, a team admitted to the Second Division League in Mozambique, a country of nearly 32 million people, which was promoted to Mocambola (First Division for Mozambique), for the 2024 season. In April 2023, we acquired 90% of the European first division football team Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev in North Macedonia, a country with participation rights in two major UEFA competitions, the Europa League and the Europa Conference League, and rebranded the team Brera Strumica FC. In June 2023, we acquired, through open market purchases, a strategic stake in Manchester United PLC, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and a portion of our stake was subject to a tender offer by Sir Jim Radcliffe and sold at a 74% realized gain in February 2024.

In July 2023, we completed the acquisition of a majority ownership in the Italian Serie A1 women’s professional volleyball team, UYBA Volley S.s.d.a.r.l. In September 2023, we assumed control of Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a team in the Mongolian National Premier League, which became Brera Ilch FC when the football season resumed in March 2024. In February 2024, we established the Brera Holdings Advisory Board, whose current members are MLS founder and World Cup director Alan Rothenberg, luxury lifestyle executive Massimo Ferragamo, sports business leaders Paul Tosetti and Marshall Geller, Italian football icon Giuseppe Rossi, and economist Arthur Laffer. In July 2024, we established a joint stock company for the North Macedonian women’s football club Tiverija Strumica, now known as Brera Tiverija FC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brera Strumica FC. In
