Based on the historic Greek island of Corfu (Kerkyra), Kerkyra United is a football club built on sustainability, unity, and innovation, focusing on talent development for the game’s future.
This is not a traditional football club. We are building for the future. We are building to unite the island. We are building to advance the beautiful game. We have an exclusive partnership with Ajax Amsterdam to build a world-class youth academy, positioning Corfu as a premier training destination in Greece and the EMEA region.
This is just the beginning.
Corfu, otherwise known as Kerkyra, is a historic island in the Ionian Sea with a deep culture of football, tourism, and history. With over 4 million annual visitors, 100,000 full-time residents, and an international airport with direct flights from every major European airport, the island is the ideal location for a new modern approach to football. Historically, the island was known for its football and sporting prowess but has since lost its way. The people are yearning for a brand and a team to unite the old and the young, the rich and poor, and pave a path for the talent of the future to become the pride of the island.
Kerkyra United will be the unifier of the island with a world-class talent development system, youth tourism that will fuel local economic development, and a brand that will represent the island’s history.
George Kazianis, a Corfu native, and Daniel Taylor, a former professional footballer, joined forces to create Only4stars, a renowned football and sports tourism agency. Together, they founded Ajax Academy Dubai, the only private Ajax academy in the world, leveraging George’s 30 years of experience as a globally renowned football agent with deep expertise in Greek football and Daniel’s hands-on experience in football operations.
George’s extensive network as a FIFA agent since 2001, including direct relationships with the Hellenic Football Federation, Ajax Amsterdam, and football’s most influential players and coaches, positions him perfectly to lead Kerkyra united in blending local pride with global ambition. Daniel, a minority owner of professional clubs like Dundalk FC, brings additional depth through his entrepreneurial achievements, previous company acquisitions, and finance knowledge.
George and Daniel are uniquely positioned to build Kerkyra United into a sustainable football club and academy with global aspirations to unlock the island’s potential.
