The third season of the Icon League starts tomorrow, and until now it was unclear which team would take the place of Motor Neufünfland.
The team led by team heads Tim Kleindienst, Nils Wehowsky, and Torsten Mattuschka was informed before the season that it would no longer be part of the Icon League.
The successor was supposed to be Mert Ekşi with his team Istanbul, but he decided not to participate due to the Icon League's partnership with Coca Cola.
The vacant spot will now be filled by Diyar Acar with his team "Find the Pro Icons". The content creator became well-known for his format "Find the Pro," where a jury had to identify the professional among various participants in a given sport. Acar has already gained experience in small-field football. Last season, he was a team head at Streets United alongside Lukas Podolski and won the Baller League with his team. Whether he will succeed in the Icon League as well will be revealed in the coming weeks.
His team will face Buzz Club on the first matchday, who finished second to last in the last season.
