Partner in a brokerage firm – help Haaland buy a house
Matias Concha, 42, is back in the TV box.
The former international made a surprise appearance on the C More Champions League broadcast during the week.
– It felt so good to be ready to go again, I really missed, he says.
Matthias Concha He played and played during Malmo FF’s first group game in the UEFA Champions League in 2014, but he put his boots on the shelf after that season.
Eight years later, the 42-year-old former footballer is once again part of the world’s best tag team championship.
When Borussia Dortmund take on FC Copenhagen in the first round of the Champions League at Signal Iduna Park on Tuesday, Matthias Koncha filled the commentary booth at Tegeludswagen in Stockholm with Lina Sundqvist.
The former full-back, who has won three SM golds, two Cup golds, five seasons in Germany’s Bochum and eight caps for Sweden, is back as an expert commentator on television.
Called a few weeks ago.
After ending his career, he worked as an expert commentator on several productions. But since last spring, there has been no TV job.
– Jesper Hausvelt and I were suspended from Spain during the pandemic. When we couldn’t do that anymore, I simply had to stop. I haven’t commented since May 2021. It was such a great feeling to be back at work, I really missed it. I will be with C More a year from now and it was only natural to step in and manage the Champions League because they have the rights. He says we had contacts just a few weeks ago.
– In terms of the club team, the Champions League is the biggest thing you can work with, and as a commentator and expert it is, along with the leagues, the most fun to work with.
Selling the house to Haaland
Concha has been living in Marbella with his family for a few years, and after a few years as a successful real estate agent, he is now a partner at Homerun Brokers.
Mediation takes a lot of my time, so I’ll be driving sporadically until summer. He says I will participate in La Liga, the first division and the Champions League.
Through a brokerage career, the 42-year-old has done business with several athletes in the Spanish tourist resort.
Recently, the brokerage firm helped Norwegian star Erling Braut Haaland.
We were tasked with selling Erling’s home and also helping him buy his new home. We have done it with great success. He was satisfied and that was the most important thing. We have many other big sports names on our client registry as well. It’s always a good idea for sports stars to want to work with one of them.
Is it just business with Haaland or are you getting a different relationship through football?
– Obviously we got to know each other now that we’ve done some work. We have a few dinners now and then when he’s in Marbella and of course it’s better if you’re a footballer. We have many common interests.
can meet in the final
Haaland, with his Manchester City side, got off to a great start in the Champions League when they lost Sevilla 4-0. Just City is the team Concha believes in the most during this year’s CL season.
– There is an incredibly good difference between them. But if City and Bayern Munich are on opposite sides, they may well meet in the final, says Concha, who may have the opportunity again in the spring to comment on Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
– I hope it’s a lot of fun. Either in the Champions League or in the League. I’ve commented on it a lot over the years. He concludes that we should hope he can quickly get back up and play again.
