LaLiga in Naija host its first official media event

Liga Nacional De Fútbol Profesional, more commonly known as “LaLiga”, on Sunday hosted its first official “LaLiga in Naija” media event at the Radisson Blu Hotel in GRA Ikeja, Lagos.
The event was aimed at officially unveiling the LaLiga Nigerian office and highlighting the various projects it has undertaken since its inception in the country.

The LaLiga office in Nigeria was launched in Abuja in 2016, in a signed partnership with Legacy Sports, but there was no official launch event at the time.
This was the first official ‘corporate’ event for the brand in Nigeria. The launch was designed to bring LaLiga closer to its Nigerian fans, and to generate more awareness around the other clubs in LaLiga.

LaLiga Delegate in Nigeria, Javier Del Rio said “LaLiga are very proud to be in Nigeria, and to be much closer to the fans. We believe Nigeria is a significant market for the growth of our brand, and we are highly committed to the development of football in this country, paying close attention to its grassroots football as demonstrated through the 5-day LaLiga-NPFL Coaching Clinic for Nigerian youth coaches earlier this year at the National Stadium in Abuja. We plan to host more of these types of activations, and this is just the beginning of greater things to come between LaLiga and Nigeria.”
