The dual listing on Upstream is designed to provide Brera the opportunity to access a global investor base outside the U.S. that can trade using credit, debit, PayPal, or USD$ unlocking liquidity and enhancing price discovery while globalizing the opportunity to invest in Brera, the only publicly traded multi-club ownership company focused on football (soccer).  Brera will soon be able to offer its non-U.S. shareholders, investors, fans and followers unparallelled access to its securities in diverse countries where its teams compete, such as Macedonia, Mozambique, and Mongolia

Pierre Galoppi, CEO of Brera Holdings, stated, “This dual listing on Upstream presents an incredible opportunity for investors and fans to actively participate in professional sports club ownership through an international portfolio of teams on three continents. As the investment landscape in pro sports evolves, we are committed to democratizing access to this global game, allowing more people to engage with and support their favorite clubs. We believe we can create value by continuing to build out our multi-club ownership group, leveraging player trading and group commercial activities to enhance our overall impact and success, ultimately generating shareholder value and delivering returns.”

Investors and current Brera shareholders outside the U.S. can get ready to trade by downloading Upstream from their preferred app store at https://upstream.exchange/, creating an account by tapping Sign Up, and completing a KYC identity verification by tapping the profile icon on the home screen and tapping KYC.

Traders on Upstream’s smart contract-powered platform will experience real-time trading and settlement, and a transparent order book that does not permit common market manipulations.

Pierre Galoppi, CEO of Brera, commented, “Building shareholder value is an ongoing goal of ours at Brera. We believe a dual listing on Upstream’s next generation market greatly supports this goal as we continue to develop and introduce initiatives and milestones that we’re excited to share with our international audience.”

ABOUT BRERA Brera (Nasdaq: BREA) is focused on expanding its social impact football (American soccer) business by developing a global portfolio of emerging football and other sports clubs. The Company aims to create increased opportunities to earn tournament prizes, gain sponsorships, and provide professional football and sports-related consulting services.

Brera is building on the legacy and brand of Brera FC, the first football club acquired by the Company in 2022. Brera FC, known as "The Third Team of Milan," has been cultivating an alternative football legacy since its founding in 2000. The Company owns the trademarked FENIX Trophy Tournament, a nonprofessional pan-European football competition recognized by UEFA, which was inaugurated in September 2021 and organized by Brera FC. The FENIX Trophy has been described by BBC Sport as "the Champions League for amateurs," with ESPN covering the 2024 FENIX Trophy finals. In October 2022, the Internet Marketing Association awarded Brera FC for "Social Impact Through Soccer," recognizing the Company's international efforts.

In March 2023, Brera expanded into Africa with the establishment of Brera Tchumene FC, which was admitted to the Second Division League in Mozambique. The team won its post-season tournament and was promoted to Mocambola, the First Division in November 2023. The Company also acquired 90% of Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev, now known as Brera Strumica FC, in North Macedonia.

Additionally, in June 2023, Brera acquired a strategic stake in Manchester United PLC, achieving a 74% realized gain on part of the investment. In July 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of a majority stake in the Italian Serie A1 women's professional volleyball team, UYBA Volley S.s.d.a.r.l. The following month, Brera took control of Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC in Mongolia, rebranding it as Brera Ilch FC. Plans for an Italian Serie B football club acquisition were announced in January 2024.

In June 2024, the North Macedonian women’s football club Tiverija Strumica officially became part of the Brera family, forming a wholly-owned subsidiary, Women's Football Club Tiverija Brera AD Strumica. Brera Holdings PLC is dedicated to creating bottom-up value from undervalued sports clubs, driving innovation, and achieving socially impactful outcomes.
