Another footballer has jumped onto the esports train and it's officially been announced that Tottenham Hotspurs star Dele Alli has been announced as Global Ambassador for EXCEL ESPORTS. 

The organisation revealed the exciting news in a video posted to their official account. Speaking about the partnership, Dele said: â€œEveryone who knows me knows my biggest passion outside of football is gaming and after becoming increasingly involved in the industry over the past few years, it seemed like joining forces with an esports team was a natural step for me to take.” 

“What drew me to EXCEL was the fact it’s the biggest British esports brand in the country and competes at the top level of esports but as well as this, I love the fact the brand was born out of a passion for gaming and the values it upholds.

“My knowledge of being a competitive athlete is something I believe can really benefit EXCEL’s roster of talent as they continue to strive to be better every single day but I’ll also be looking to further my own knowledge and understanding of this truly exciting industry.”
