My Athlete Network

The teams I would buy currently in January 2025 to start my own Red Bull-type athlete network.

Enyimba (Nigeria) US$ 100 000

Nkana FC (Zambia)

Asante Kotoko (Ghana) € 2,05 m

Hafia FC (Guinea) € 75 000

Barnsley € 2,09 m

FC Astana € 2,05 m

Águia de Marabá FC € 250 000

EC Cruzeiro € 100 000

BASKETBALL:

Caxias do Sul

Campo Mourão

AAB Joinville

I would change the Nkana FC logo to this upon purchase (incase of copyright issues with Manchester United).

I would place three over 23-years-old, local players (on merit) in each team. Each team would have a similar system of play, coaching & lifestyle.

Other football teams I'd consider adding to the network depending on finances, profitability & access to better competitions.

Comprehensive classification of Ngoni / Nguni groups.

Nhlangwini & Swazi are under a Dlamini dynasty while the Hlubi & Zizi are also Dlamini tribes. Ngoni & Shangaan are of Ndwandwe origin (a tribe assimilated by the Zulu Empire). Bhaca, Hlubi, Ndebele, Nhlangwini, Shangaan, Zizi & some Mpondo are often classified as Zulu. While it's unknown whether Mpondo & Xhosa qualify as Nguni, they are often grouped as Nguni. Using family groups to classify : • Mbo • Mpo...

Concept of a Ngoni Federation.

For all who might still be lost as to who is what, here is a Comprehensive classification of Ngoni / Nguni groups . While a Nguni superstate might not work, a Nguni/Ngoni Federation might. This would involve doing some administration & building some currently non-existing boards & infrastructure. The plan being to build a functioning & successful ethno-federation under one motive to develop Nguni/Ngon i identity & livelihoods of citizens in Nguni/Ngoni territories. Bearing in mind that we do not all live in the same countries so the laws of the respective countries we live under would need to be obeyed. The Plan : • Schools that share a similar syllabus . These schools would have to teach their respective Nguni/Ngoni languages as a mandatory language. For schools in Ngoni territories who no longer speak a Nguni/Ngoni language, the Zulu language could be the default language. • Sports academies associated with the respect...
