OneFootball

Speaking of the deal to Bloomberg, OneFootball CEO Lucas von Cranach said that the move will "benefit the whole football ecosystem with clubs, federations and leagues able to increase audience reach and harness our powerful data insights to gain a deeper understanding of their fans' engagement as the rise of advertising means they need to know as much as possible".

Founded in 2008 by Lucas von Cranach, the app provides extensive football coverage, including live scores, statistics, news, and video content.

In May 2022, OneFootball raised €300 million in a Series D financing round led by Liberty City Ventures, with participation from Animoca Brands, Dapper Labs, and others.

Reports indicate that OneFootball is undertaking measures to stabilize its operations and continue serving its user base with high-quality football content and services.

Fischer stated: “We burned our fingers heavily one and half years ago, like any other company in the Web3 space, so our proposition going forward will be a global football marketplace for content products and services.
