United World Announces Sale of K. Beerschot VA

Antwerp4 min read

United World is proud to announce the successful sale of K. Beerschot VA, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the club's story.

When United World took charge in 2018, Beerschot had just climbed back from the amateur divisions. From that moment, our focus was on bringing the club back to its historic level.

One of the most symbolic steps was restoring the legendary #13 license, reuniting Beerschot with its true identity. Over the following years, we invested heavily in rebuilding the squad for long term sustainable growth. As a result, the club spent three of the last five seasons competing in the Jupiler Pro League, proudly returning to where it has always belonged: among Belgium's top teams.

A Shared Success Story

We want to thank Beerschot fans, whose passion has been the heart and soul of the club throughout this journey. The chants at the Olympisch Stadion, the sea of purple in Antwerp, and the unwavering support through every high and low have made Beerschot one of Europe's most unique football clubs.

Our gratitude also goes to the staff, minority shareholders, and local community who stood by us and shared in the work of building a stronger, more sustainable Beerschot. Their commitment has been key to the club's progress.

Looking Ahead

The new ownership inherits a club with a proud tradition, a vibrant fanbase, a strong squad and a clear identity. We are confident that Beerschot will continue to grow and enjoy success both on and off the pitch in the years to come.
