Preliminary Disposal Agreement 

On 17th January 2019, the Company announced the acquisition of Sport Capital Group Holdings Limited (“SCGH”), the parent company of Sports Capital Group Investments Ltd. (“SCGI”), sole owner of Italian football club, US Città di Palermo SpA, in Palermo, Sicily, and of Mepal Srl, the club’s intellectual property and stadium project, for a nominal sum.

Following events in recent weeks that have prevented the Company’s relaunch of US Citta di Palermo, the Company has decided to accept a proposal to sell for a nominal value Palermo Football Club SpA, US Citta di Palermo SpA and Mepal Srl, to a group led by the historic management team, dott.ssa De Angeli.  Loan notes and debts associated with the transaction structure will be settled at the same time.

Following discussions with investors and the results of further due diligence, the Board decided that the club would be better suited to another owner.
