TransferRoom - Customer Stories

As Mamelodi Sundowns prepare for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, TransferRoom is at the heart of their recruitment strategy. Since joining in 2022, the South African giants have used the platform to complete record-breaking transfers, including Marcelo Allende (€2.9M), Matías Esquivel (€2.3M), and Tashreeq Matthews (€1.5M). Their biggest-ever deal, Arthur Sales (€3.2M), was also made possible through TransferRoom.

“TransferRoom expands our possibilities,” says Sporting Director Flemming Berg. “We connect with clubs and agents instantly, making recruitment more efficient.” Attending TransferRoom Summits allows Sundowns to hold 23 meetings in two days, gaining market intelligence and fast-tracking deals.

With a vision to dominate African football and strengthen global ties, Sundowns rely on TransferRoom to identify talent, build relationships, and maximise transfer opportunities.
