Sporting Edinburgh (written in media as Sporting SCO) is a Scottish professional football club who is in the recently created FIFA Master League system, a 4-tier league of clubs from every continent, currently in their second season.
Creation[]
Sporting Edinburgh was created as a way to promote Scottish football by having a state-of-the-art pitch and state-of-the-art facilities.
First Season[]
The first season of Sporting Edinburgh started off badly. The team was created solely out of free transfers and homegrown youth. The club's aim was to avoid a bottom finish, and out of 24 teams, and they were averaging 20th place. Nuno Diogo, Leftereis Sakellariou and Anestis Argyriou were brought in to harden the defence. Instantly the club started to do well, beating 1st placed Fiorentina and drawing with 2nd placed Genk.
