Thank you for your warm support.
We are pleased to announce that we have entered into a strategic partnership with SKASports Investments Private Limited (“SKASports”), an India-based company engaged in sports-related businesses and investments in sports assets.
As part of this partnership, SKASports will acquire a minority stake in NSG Global Pte Ltd, the parent and operating company of FC Jurong.
Background and Objectives of the Partnership
Since its establishment in 2004, FC Jurong has grown into one of Singapore football’s leading clubs, winning the Singapore Premier League title six times.
Beginning from the 2026/27 season, the club will officially adopt the name “FC Jurong,” marking a new chapter under a renewed club identity focused on further growth and deeper engagement with the local community.
Through this partnership, FC Jurong and SKASports will strengthen collaboration across both football and business operations, while promoting club development and business expansion not only in Singapore, but throughout Asia.
The partnership also aims to drive growth in multiple areas, including the expansion of international partnerships, enhancement of commercial value, increased brand recognition across the Asian market, youth player development, and further improvement in football performance.
Comments from Rohit Ramesh, Director of SKASports
We are excited to partner with FC Jurong and begin this journey together. This partnership is built on a shared vision to strengthen the club’s foundations, enhance its overall value and support its continued progression as a competitive and forward-looking football institution in Singapore.
Comments from Sudhir Menon, Director of SKASports
We are delighted to come on board and be part of FC Jurong’s journey. This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside a strong management team and build on the momentum already in place, with a clear focus on unlocking long term growth, international opportunities and elevating the club’s presence in Singapore and the wider region.
Comments from Chairman Daisuke Korenaga
FC Jurong is currently entering one of the most important and exciting moments in the club’s history. The club’s rebranding, together with the growing international attention it is receiving, forms a strong foundation for an exciting new chapter ahead.
Our partnership with SKASports represents an important step for FC Jurong as we seek to grow beyond Singapore and expand across Asia. Based in Singapore, a hub of Asia where companies and cultures from around the world intersect, we aim to build a unique growth model for FC Jurong by combining Japan's accumulated expertise in club management and player development with the tremendous growth potential of India, home to nearly 1.5 billion people.
Through this partnership, we look forward to creating new value for our players, fans, local community, and the wider Asian football landscape.
