Canberra United's Future Secured by New Owner

The long-term future of Canberra United, a two-time A-League Women champion, has been secured. Australian Sports Group (ASG) has taken charge of the club's licence, ending two years of uncertainty. ASG also holds an exclusive option to establish an A-League Men's team in Canberra, potentially by the 2028/29 season.

This development follows previous uncertainty after the club's former backers, Capital Football, ceased funding. The ACT government had been supporting the club for the past two years. ASG chief executive Theo Fotopoulos expressed excitement about investing in the women's team and progressing towards an integrated professional club.
