MergersCorp M&A International assisted, with the M&A Advisory team, Olbia Calcio 1905 SRL, a professional football club in the Italian Serie C, in the sale of 70% to Swiss Pro Promotion GMBH, a Swiss financial group based in Wollerau in the canton of Schwyz in Swiss.

Swiss Pro Promotion provides strategic advice, management support and strategic investments to high-potential football clubs around the world with the aim of identifying and defining club- and location-specific economic opportunities that enable sustained monetisation, for the benefit of the clubs, of the their communities, stakeholders and shareholders.

Olbia Calcio 1905 SRL and the President Marino Alessandro were assisted on financial issues by the M&A Advisory team of MergersCorp M&A International, made up of Stefano Endrizzi (in the photo) from the Vienna office, Edward Sklar from the New York office and Alessio Magnone consultant Italian sportsman.
Swiss Pro Promotion GmbH took over 70% of the share capital, leaving the remaining 30% to the minority shareholders Marino, Tartara and Bazzu, divided in equal parts. For the first time, a Swiss company becomes the majority shareholder of an Italian professional football team.

Thanks to its extensive network and extensive experience in the sports sector, MergersCorp M&A International has identified a Swiss buyer with not only the financial means but also the passion for football to take the club forward. Their financial resources would allow the club to invest in new players, infrastructure and facilities, ensuring its competitiveness in national and international competitions. Furthermore, the Swiss buyer shared the same vision as the club’s fans, demonstrating a genuine commitment to preserving the team’s heritage, tradition and values.

Ultimately, the sale of shares to the Swiss buyer provided the Italian club with a much-needed financial boost and a strategic partner to face the challenges and competition of modern football.

The new strategy will not in any way modify the Club’s bond with its fans and with the territory which will remain the main points of reference on which to continue building the Club’s future.
