Associazione Sportiva Tiger Brolo, commonly known as Tiger Brolo (pronounced [ˈtaiɡer ˈbrɔːlo]), was an Italian football club based in Brolo, Sicily, who last competed in Serie D, the fourth tier of the Italian football league system, before being dissolved in 2015.
History
[edit | edit source]The club was founded in 2003 by Antonio Cipriano, who aimed to recreate the spirit of the old GS Tiger.[1] In the season 2013–14 the team was promoted for the first time from Eccellenza Sicily to Serie D.[2] After just one season, they were relegated back to Eccellenza; however, in July 2015, the club failed to register to the new season due to financial issues and therefore folded altogether.[3] In 2023, after a seven-year legal battle, Carmelo Arasi, Giovanni Scaffidi Mangialardo, and Antonio Mai were accused of embezzling €122,100 by using their leadership roles at the club to conceal the unlawful income.[4]
