UAE Pro League Partners with Chiliz to Launch Web3 Fantasy Football

The UAE Pro League, the top football league in the United Arab Emirates, is teaming up with a blockchain provider for sports and entertainment, called Chiliz. Using new tech, they want to make the league more popular worldwide and make watching football fun for fans.

Together, they’re planning to create a fantasy football game that uses blockchain, a network risk management system for enterprise-level business. This game will let fans from all over the world play and connect with the league in a new way. 

Fans will also have the chance to get their hands on footballs from actual games by owning exclusive blockchain-authenticated game-scored balls. They’ll share more about how fans can get these footballs later.

Waleed Ebrahim Alhosani, the driving force behind the UAE Pro League, is particularly thrilled about this venture. He sees it as a major stride for the league to gain global popularity and embrace new technology in sports.

Alexandre Dreyfus, the mastermind behind Chiliz and Socios.com, is equally enthusiastic about the collaboration: “Collaborating with the UAE Pro League is a key milestone for Chiliz as we continue to pioneer the integration of web3 technologies in football.” 

The UAE Pro League, the most-watched sports event in the UAE football with 14 teams. Featuring 14 clubs, it serves as the country’s most popular sports competition.

Their collaboration with Chiliz is not a surprise as the blockchain provider has become attractive to investors due to its role in the Socios ecosystem and potential growth.

Chiliz is partnering with the UAE Pro League to help football grow in the Middle East and North Africa. This partnership will bring new technology to the league, make football even more popular in the UAE among this sport’s fans, and create a new exciting market for bettors on crypto bookmakers’ pages.
