  • Sigma Olomouc's owners are dissatisfied with the team's performance in their first year under new ownership.
  • The club aims to become a top domestic destination and compete in European tournaments.
  • The owners emphasize that a high standard of football is necessary to attract and retain foreign players.

One year after businessman Milan ล imonovskรฝ and other donors acquired Sigma Olomouc, the club's leadership acknowledges a gap between their ambitions and the team's on-field results. The vision was to transform Olomouc into a prominent football hub, at least domestically, and regularly feature in European club competitions. However, the initial season has left the club's offices far from fully satisfied.

ล imonovskรฝ and his partners have stressed that maintaining a high level of play is crucial for the club's future success. They believe that without compelling football, attracting and retaining talented foreign players will remain a significant challenge. This sentiment underscores the owners' commitment to elevating the team's quality and competitiveness.

The club's management is now focused on addressing the shortcomings identified during the pilot year. Their goal remains to build a stronger Sigma Olomouc capable of meeting both domestic expectations and European aspirations. The owners' message to the league is clear: quality football is the foundation upon which sustained success and international appeal are built.
