Red Bull as a role model? Ex-Bayern boss Kahn plans multi-club empire | OneFootball

Ex-Bayern CEO Oliver Kahn is planning his comeback as a top manager – bigger, more international and more financially ambitious than ever before. The titan dreams of building his own multi-club empire in world soccer. But recent research shows that the very man who is supposed to finance Kahn’s billion-dollar project raises massive questions

Since his departure from FC Bayern, Oliver Kahn has been working on a spectacular new start in management. As reported by BILD, his aim is nothing less than to build a multi-club ownership network (MCO) like the City Football Group or Red Bull. Under the umbrella of his company „Oliver Kahn Sports Capital“ (OKSC), undervalued clubs in Europe are to be bought up, developed in sporting terms and commercially exploited with returns of over 20 percent

Kahn made his first attempt in the summer when he tried to take over Girondins Bordeaux. The project failed – too expensive, too complex. But Kahn did not give up. At an exclusive event in Munich at the end of November, he finally presented the man who is to finance his soccer dream in front of selected guests

Kahn spoke full of emotion, emphasized the two-year search for the „right partner“ and announced something „big“. According to BILD, it was a financially strong Munich entrepreneur

According to his own statements, he is said to have access to billions in assets – via a Swiss family office, allegedly fed by funds from „shy families“ from Switzerland and Doha. For Kahn, this sounded like the decisive breakthrough

But BILD ’s research paints a completely different picture. A credit check shows that Kahn’s business partner is financially unreliable and has numerous „hard negatives“ from the Munich district court. In addition, there are seizures and long-standing payment problems

And Kahn? He continues to trust – and goes even deeper. While the doubts continue to grow, Kahn apparently takes the next step. According to BILD information, the former world goalkeeper officially became an advisory board member of his new partner’s Swiss family office just a few days ago

Whether he is fully informed about the financial and legal problems of his financier remains unclear. Kahn’s entourage and management refused to answer questions about his business partner or the joint soccer plans

A risky game – and a titan in the middle of the fire

Kahn’s vision of a global soccer network is ambitious, bold and could lead him back to the center of international sport, but the man he is relying on to make it happen is causing considerable doubt

Reputable investors, families worth billions, strictly audited funds – they all work with maximum transparency. His new business partner, on the other hand, leaves behind a pattern of ambiguities, unanswered questions and contradictory self-portrayals, according to research

There is a lot at stake for Kahn: his future as a manager, his public reputation – and possibly his entire new business model

Only time will tell whether the titan is really building an empire or whether he has made risky promises.
