Viele Fußballvereine haben den E-Sport mittlerweile für sich entdeckt und engagieren sich in den verschiedensten Bereichen der elektronischen Spielwelt. Mit Manchester City betritt nun ein finanzstarker Verein die Bühne und beginnt sein E-Sport Engagement in EA SPORTS FIFA. Wie der Verein auf seiner Internetpräsenz bekannt gab, wird Kieran ‚Kez‘ Brown der erste E-Sport Spieler in der Geschichte des Klubs werden.
Statement Diego Gigliani, SVP, Media and Innovation:
As eSports continues to gain momentum, it makes sense for our Club to be part of the action and get closer to our fans, who love playing EA SPORTS FIFA as Manchester City. We will be a bigger presence at gaming tournaments, we will have more content through our digital channels and we will activate even more with our fans at matches and Club events. When we set out to find an eSports player, we decided we wanted someone who was a fantastic, young, talent, but also with a hunger and a desire to grow. We strongly believe we have found that in Kieran. He is full of potential. Not only is he a great player, but we also believe he will engage and interact brilliantly with our fans all around the world.
Statement Kieran ‚Kez‘ Brown:
It’s exciting; it’s something new for the Club and it’s something new for me. I’m going to livestream on twitch, I’m going to be making videos for Manchester City’s YouTube channel and I’m going to be playing some City fans and representing City in future tournaments, which I’m looking forward to. This is an opportunity which not many people get the chance to do and I couldn’t turn it down.
