Our Story: Left Manchester United to make history

After years of working together in Manchester United's scouting department, we decided to start a special new project just a few minutes from the Italian coast.

Along with a group of investors, we acquired a century-old professional club in an ideal location: NK Tabor in Sežana, Slovenia. The team competes in the 2nd division, after being relegated from the top league one year ago. Led by a seasoned team of scouts and youth recruitment experts from elite clubs like Manchester United, Manchester City, Leeds United, and Birmingham City, our group boasts a track record of transfer sales and high level transactions. Our expertise has been instrumental in identifying and signing top global talent, including some of the most valuable players in the world, such as Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, Jude Bellingham, and others.

With impressive experience and an expansive global network, we expect that Tabor United will generate profits from transfer fees going forward.

Club Tradition

The club MD Tabor Sežana was founded in 1923. In Slovenian and other Slavic languages, Tabor is a fortress or fortified village. The Italian government shut down the club in 1927, and the town of Sežana subsequently became part of Yugoslavia after World War II.

When Slovenia became independent in 1991, the club joined the newly created Slovenian 2nd division. NK Tabor's promotion in 2019 started a 4-year run of successful seasons in the 1st division (1.SNL).

Sežana is on the border of Italy, a few kilometers from the Italian city of Trieste on the Adriatic Sea. The town is located in the Prosecco region, famous for sparkling wine and prosciutto. Most locals speak Slovenian and Italian, and often Croatian as well. The beach is just 15 minutes away from the stadium.

Financial Strategy:

With a clearly defined strategy for increasing club revenue through transfer sales and UEFA prize money, we expect to generate impressive profits for investors. (Future projections are not guaranteed)

Although it is a small club, NK Tabor has the opportunity to participate in two important European competitions, and has access to three important sources of income:

1. UEFA Bonuses

There are two paths for NK Tabor to qualify for the three prestigious UEFA competitions: Champions League, Europa League, and Europa Conference League. Earning a berth can be quite lucrative financially, as each team receives cash payments from UEFA.

Qualifying teams play in a separate playoff-like competition with a win and advance structure. The minimum payment is €150,000 (EUR) for teams participating in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

If the club continues to win matches the UEFA competition, the payments could rise to over €3 million (EUR) in a single season.

As owners of the club, investors will share in team profits and have the opportunity to receive quarterly dividend payments. Imagine celebrating NK Tabor wins in a European competition with millions of dollars on the line for the club and its investors!

2. Player Transfer Sales

By focusing on underrepresented regions like South America and Africa, we expect to complete outgoing transfer sales to generate millions of dollars of income for Tabor United.

Over the past 5 years, NK Tabor has successfully transferred players to other European leagues for more than $1.1 million in value. The club also retained a small percentage of any future fees received from the next transfer of the player.

Our management group previously helped structure and negotiate over $120 million in transfer deals on four continents. With impressive experience and an expansive global network, we expect that NK Tabor will earn even more transfer fee profits going forward.

Past performance is not indicative of future results, and should not be relied upon as a forecast of future performance.

3. Slovenia Television Contract

Upon promotion to the Slovenian 1st division, each club receives a minimum of €150,000 per season from the league's television contract. That amount can rise to €250,000 depending on the club's performance.

We expect NK Tabor to achieve promotion to the 1st division with 1-2 years. Over time, the value of the Slovenian television contract is projected to increase, providing the club with an additional source of revenue.

Please note that future projections are not guaranteed. All projections or estimates are based on assumptions that may or may not occur. No guarantee can be offered that projections or estimates will actually occur.

Real team ownership. Real voting rights. Real profit sharing. Join NK Tabor United.

Next Steps

With Series A capital from investors, the club can improve the roster and sign players of an even higher level. NK Tabor has had the lowest budget in the division every year for the past half decade. Players and staff were previously paid late because the finances of the prior owner were unstable.

Since we acquired the club, NK Tabor has an improved roster and paid off all debts. Over the final 10 matches of the 2023/2024 season, the team had the 4th most points in the Slovenian 2nd division. This shows that our strategy is working, and NK Tabor can compete to return to the 1st division next season.

We are also competing in the Slovenian Cup, and the winner receives an automatic bid to the Europa Conference League competition with guaranteed UEFA prize money.

Signing better players also leads to increased player transfer income. Paying slightly higher salaries will allow NK Tabor to implement our strategy of signing players from all over the globe, and especially emerging talent markets in South America and Africa. Our scouting group has extensive experience with offices on 3 continents.

Note that these are projections or estimates are based on assumptions that may or may not occur. Actual results may be materially different from projections or estimates.

Global Academy Recruitment

In order to increase potential transfer market revenue, Tabor United opened academies in Colombia and the United States for player development. This strategy allows the scouting department to identify and sign players in important talent markets, even if they do not fit within the current roster plans for NK Tabor.

Some academy players may be transferred directly to outside clubs in exchange for a transfer fee, rather than signing with NK Tabor in Slovenia. A majority of all revenue from the academies will be owned by investors, corresponding to the percentage owned by Tabor United. Dividend distributions may be issued to investors from the proceeds of profitable transfer sales.

The academies owned by Tabor United will also be utilized to provide players for the NK Tabor roster. The operational costs of the academies are much lower than a professional club. By signing a greater number of total players at an earlier stage, Tabor United is expected to save substantially on player transfer fees, which can increase rapidly as players are discovered by competitors.

In Colombia, investors will own a majority stake in Oriente FC, near Cartagena. Currently, more than 20 youth players are registered there to compete in regional leagues and tournaments. Tabor United targeted Colombia because it is a top-5 talent production market in the world, where we have decades of experience.

Current Transfer Assets

NK Tabor also owns the rights to transfer and bonus income from the transfer sales of former players. Investors can follow the transfer market (transfermarkt.com) as a method of tracking the value of their investment.

For example, if the following players are transferred for a fee in the future, NK Tabor will receive a percentage of the transfer payment. A transfer providing substantial income for the club could result in a distribution payment to investors.

Following the transfer market news in Europe just became even more interesting...as it could lead to real profits for you as an owner.

Join the Best of the Best

Since we acquired the club in 2024, NK Tabor has signed elite players from the Ghana Under-17 National Team, Algeria U-17, Bulgaria U-21, Slovenia U-18, and Colombia U-20. These young talents were selected among the best 25 players for their age group in countries where football is everything.

Now an outstanding group of players have joined a development, and coaching staff with experience working for some of the best clubs in the world, including Manchester United, Manchester City, and Leeds United. We expect impressive results.

Democratization

Tabor United provides opportunities for players from unfavorable economic conditions. Our scouts have first-hand experience with players who never reached their potential due to circumstances outside of their control, such as living in remote locations or suffering from financial constraints.

Within months of acquiring the club, the NK Tabor roster now has the highest number of foreign players in all four leagues of Slovenian football, as well as the most South American and African players.

Off the pitch, NK Tabor hires from a wide variety of backgrounds, including those without any formal background or experience in the sport. Scouting and coaching positions are available to anyone with the technical skills and, of course, a passion for learning, winning, and collaboration. Investors are encouraged to participate in the scouting process.

Voting Rights

Investors will vote as owners on everything from coaching hires to the official team name. Should we keep NK Tabor, or change the official title to FC Tabor, or to Tabor United?

For some player decisions, owners will vote among options provided by the recruitment and talent identification group. All Investors will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement before voting on classified internal team decisions.

Investors will also receive voting rights for future capital events, including the possible sale of the club.
