ALK Capital, the leading US management firm specialising in investments and operations in the sports and media sectors, and controlling owners of Burnley Football Club, have today announced a strategic partnership with Scottish Premiership club, Dundee FC.

The new alliance, which comes as both clubs continue their first respective seasons back in the top-flight of English and Scottish football, will foster a platform to engage and enhance emerging and developing talent within competitive football, while creating fresh opportunities for both clubs to pursue their shared ambitions.

The relationship is already seeing the likes of Dara Costelloe and Owen Dodgson join for The Dark Blues, bolstering the Club in the hunt for European qualification this season.

Speaking about the partnership, Burnley FC chairman and Managing Partner of ALK Capital, Alan Pace, said: “We are thrilled to embark on this new journey with Dundee FC, who like Burnley, share a rich history and passionate fanbase. This relationship enhances our collective strength and will bring about some fantastic opportunities for shared growth and success.

“The Scottish Premiership is an excellent proving ground to progress young and emerging talent, as well as providing a potential gateway to European competition.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with Dundee FC and creating meaningful mutual and lasting impacts both on and off the pitch.”

Dundee FC chairman, Tim Keyes, added:“We are incredibly excited to begin this partnership with Burnley Football Club, which will support our continued pursuit of sporting excellence. Like ourselves, they are a club that is deeply rooted within their community, and which shares our ambitions.

“Joining forces with a club of this stature is a real statement of intent and one which we hope will support our journey towards greater heights in the future.”
