124 people. 293 1-on-1s. 75 clubs. 25 leagues. 5 continents. 1 room. That was SCOUTASTIC Club Connect 2026! It started with one question: where can clubs and decision-makers talk openly with each other, away from pitches and formal meetings? A place built only to connect, share experiences and discuss the next transfer window without third parties. On 1 October, we brought together Sporting Directors, Technical Directors, Heads of Scouting and Heads of Data for 10 talks and countless honest conversations, the kind that only happen when everyone in the room has the same topics: scouting, recruitment and the decisions behind them. And what a day it was... A special thank you to our 10 speakers, Gareth Jennings, Luke England, Niels Wigbold, Marta Carissimi, Michael Parensen, Gerhard Struber, Paulo Araujo, Matthias Ringler, Dévy Rigaux and Andrii Fedchenkov, for sharing their experience so openly with the room. We also want to take a moment to thank our amazing team for making this happen, our partners at TheScoutSource and COACHINSIDE, the team of JAAI | JUST ADD AI, and above all, every club that trusted us with their time. This was only our first edition. We know how high we've set the bar, and we'll make sure we push it even higher. See you at Club Connect 2027!

How can a newly founded club re-establish itself in professional football? One thing is clear: A complete reset is required. But isn’t that also a great opportunity? That’s exactly where we want to support UNION BRESCIA. Founded only in July 2025, the club finished its very first season with a sensational second place in Serie C. Now, ahead of the new season, it’s all about creating professional structures in scouting and recruitment. SCOUTASTIC provides the perfect all-in-one platform for this purpose. Whether it is squad planning, writing and analysing reports, task management, player comparisons or coach scouting, our platform offers the ideal foundation to professionalise your processes. Combined with exclusive Transfermarkt data and our AI-powered analyses, we deliver the well-founded basis for decision-making that any new club needs. During the recent transfer window, Union Brescia was also able to benefit from our transfer and communication platform, SCOUTASTIC Club2Club. They had the chance to quickly and easily gain an overview of the current market and were able to connect directly with decision-makers from over 150 Club2Club members to make the right adjustments to their squad. We are delighted to support and accompany Union Brescia right from the very beginning of their journey! #SerieC #scouting #football #transfermarkt #AI #JAAIGroup

What changes in scouting are necessary when you rise from League One to the Europa League in just five years? Sunderland AFC has celebrated an unprecedented success story in recent years – even documented by Netflix for a time – all while carrying the weight of true football heritage. When you achieve such a rapid rise in such a short period, it is often difficult to adapt existing workflows and processes to new demands. This is exactly where SCOUTASTIC can help. Our all-in-one platform provides the ideal framework to plan, manage, and streamline all tasks within scouting and recruitment. Especially when the team grows quickly, there is a risk that information may be lost because existing workflows are not yet aligned. SCOUTASTIC supports Sunderland AFC in effortlessly professionalising their scouting. At the same time, scouts and decision-makers can focus on what matters most: squad planning, identifying and scouting suitable players, and making key signings. All on one platform, with all the essential data at their fingertips – and, thanks to AI-powered analyses, the perfect foundation for every decision. We are delighted to be part of Sunderland’s success story and to support the club on its ongoing journey! #EuropaLeague #scouting #football #transfermarkt #AI #JAAIGroup
