Imagine.. It’s evening of match day and the stadium lights just lit up
Your newly owned club is playing against their rival
Your family and close friends just settled comfortably into the owners box for the next 90 minutes
The sold out crowd’s singing is reverberating beyond the pitch
Your team nets the winning goal in extra time, the stadium erupts in total elation
On the walk home to your villa, a group of club supporters invite you to join them in continuing the celebration at a local pub
All of this happening in a beautiful country you love
You feel the passion, you feel alive.
It’s a beautiful game

Professional Football (Soccer) Club Ownership Options

At Cyan Football Group, we provide personal end to end support for soon-to-be owners from identifying the ideal club to consulting on business / sporting operations post club acquisition, for as long as our services are requested. Clubs are for sale and can be wholly owned for as little as $200,000 (pending club availability) + deal closing fees (lawyers/regulatory fees, taxes, etc..)

Single Buyer Club Ownership

We partner with you directly as your buyer agent throughout the entire process and depending on your post club acquisition operating preference, we can stay on as your club operators or consultants for as long as you would like or hand over the reins to you completely, and you can just reach out to us if you ever need anything.

Multi-Buyer Club Ownership (less than 10 investors)

We introduce you to other interested buyers in the CFG network who are personality fits and share your club ownership value criteria. We are your buyer agent throughout the entire buying process and depending on your post club acquisition operating preference, we can stay on and be your club operators or consultants for as long as you would like or hand over the reins to you completely, and you can just reach out to us if you ever need anything.

Fractional Buyer Club Ownership (more than ~10 investors)

You will receive non-dilutable equity ownership shares for a specific club or in a multi-club ownership portfolio commensurate with your investment amount. Once you reach out to us letting us know that you would like to be in one of our fractional owner groups, the process then begins. We socialize our CFG fractional ownership community what club(s) we have qualified to fundraise for, you choose to either participate in the proposed club or wait for the next one. Then Cyan Football Group acquires the club as a US LLC and when you are registered as an official owner for the club with your respective ownership stake. Cyan Football Group will be the operators and majority shareholder of these clubs so we are vested in our collective clubs’ success and continually pursue divisional promotion to increase the valuation of your shares. Fractional club investment opportunities begin at $5,000

Investing in a football (soccer) club isn’t just about passion, it’s about long-term value creation. With the right strategy, a club’s valuation, revenue, and influence can grow exponentially.
