Hi, I'm Stefan.

I grew up in the sports and entertainment business.
My dad was 2x Basketball Coach of the Year in Belgium but also the organizer of world-class events in Antwerp such as the European Community Championship tennis tournament and the Diamond Awards music festival.

My focus however is on football.

Since 2008 I've been doing deals and assisting clubs, players, coaches and sports directors.  

I am based in Antwerp, Belgium but active worldwide because of my network and the relationships I've built over the years.

I've had the pleasure to assist big names in football such as Eidur Gudjohnsen & Eiji Kawashima and deal with clubs like Zenit St. Petersburg, Club Brugge, Juventus FC, Lokomotiv Moscow, Sunderland, AS Monaco,... and agents like Alain Migliaccio (Zinédine Zidane).
I've also acted as an intermediary for big investment funds, amongst which IVEAGH (the Guinness-family).

The largest deal I handled for a client was in 2016: €15M (in salary - 5y contract).

In 2013 a club in the highest division in Belgium offered me the position of C.E.O. which I refused.

In 2015 I was offered the position of Visiting Professor of Football at a Belgian university which I refused.

I like to be independent, connect people and opportunities which is why I work as a dealmaker.

To be more precise, as a dealmaker I focus on Deal Sourcing: I create opportunities.  

My value lies in the ability to uncover opportunities, connect the right people and open doors that others may not see.

Anyone can close a deal that's on the table, only a few can people can see a deal before it manifests.

Thanks to my network, background, experience and reputation I can reach any decision-maker worldwide within 2 phone-calls maximum.

Last but not least, I have an exclusive partnership with an agency in New York for deals with clubs in the Major League Soccer (MLS).

Yours sincerely,

Stefan
