Kick-Off for Brera Tchumene Football Club in Mozambique: the “Brera Era” on an international scale begins in Africa
First official international match in the history of Brera FC: “The Third Team of Milan”
MAPUTO, NEW YORK, DUBLIN and MILAN, April 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brera Holdings PLC ("Brera" and Nasdaq: BREA) announced that its Brera Tchumene Football Club will officially start its season on April 30, 2023, playing in an away match against AD Ximanganine, within the Divisao Provencial (2nd Division) in Mozambique, Africa.
This is the first official international match in the history of Brera. The championship of the Divisao Provencial, made up of 12 teams for a total of 30 games, highlights various talents every year - players who are “on the launch pad,” ready to enter the Mozambican Mocambola (1st Division) and subsequently, move to Europe through the transfer market.
The decision to establish Brera Tchumene, based in the metro area of the capital city of Maputo, is part of Brera Holdings' strategy to expand its multi-club portfolio with associated club rebranding on a global scale, “After Europe and Africa, we are exploring other opportunities in other continents too,” said Brera Holdings’ CEO Sergio Scalpelli.
The Brera Tchumene Football Club ended up third in the pre-season tournament, highlighting several promising players. Right from the first league match, Brera's Milan-based central technical staff will monitor the progress of Brera Tchumene and its players, including daily scouting, particularly important for the future inclusion of the best players in Brera-branded clubs in Europe.
A key aspect of Brera Holdings’ business model is to target its intra-group player transfers. The club presentation press conference will be held tomorrow, April 28, 2023. You can attend by emailing: and requesting video conference connection details.
