WHERE AMBITION
MEETS STRUCTURE

ONBOARD OUR FLIGHT TO THE HORIZONS OF SOCCER

munduan bakarra.
means Unique in the world,
in Euskera (basque language)

Beyond Limits with philosophy in homage of Athletic BIlbao - a team we do not have links, because they only raise from Basque.

ERESfutbolista was created by a Korean founder who recognized something rare in the Basque world:
a culture that refuses shortcuts,
protects its identity with dignity,
and builds strength not from size or money, but from clarity and purpose.

It resonated deeply with
our own Korean roots —
a nation shaped by endurance, discipline, and the will to rise again and again.
We do not imitate the Basque model.
We inherit the spirit that makes it extraordinary:

its independence, its commitment to roots, its belief that greatness comes from staying true to who you are.
And then we build our
own global system on top of it.

We operate with that same stubborn,
proud independence:

Our programs in Spain, Portugal, the U.S., Korea, and Argentina run on one principle —
identity first, shortcuts never.
Each player follows a structured, habit-driven progression that demands responsibility, accuracy, and self-awareness.
Every step is a rejection of the lukewarm. Every environment is built to form resilient, globally adaptable athletes.
A Korean company shaped by the fire of two cultures —

the endurance of Korea and the uncompromising purity of the Basque spirit.
Independent. Demanding. Honest.
Munduan bakarra — one of one in the world.

Even in the most demanding international environments, our rule never changes:
academics come first, always.
We place our players in difficult settings where language, culture, schooling, and daily discipline test them deeply—but we do this because growth requires pressure, and character only appears when the environment is uncompromising.
In these conditions, we require every athlete to study like a local student, communicate like a resident, and build intellectual discipline before they are allowed to advance in football.

This is not negotiable.

If academic effort collapses,
the pathway stops.
But when players rise to this standard—and they always do—they not only survive the environment; they master it.
And because they master it,
they also end up performing better in football than in any easy system that protects them.

This approach is a
fusion of two cultural forces:
the Korean founder’s belief in endurance, education, and responsibility;
and the Basque spirit of
identity, discipline, and independence.

We combined them into one development model where the mind is trained before the body, identity is built before opportunity, and football excellence emerges
from a foundation of character—
not convenience.
In a world full of shortcuts,
we chose the harder road.
And that is why our players succeed.

Study here, or you won't play.

you are born munduan bakarra,
may as well show how unique.

From No Exposure to the Big Stage

“Project Koreans For Europe (The antedecent of Go Pro.) changed everything for him.
He went from having no global exposure in 3rd division of Czech Republic to playing for La Liga as an official FIRST TEAM player. J&P and ERES believed in him, supported him, and made it real.”
