Konami Holding Group

BARCELONA: FC Barcelona announced on Tuesday a partnership with Konami Holding Group and eFootball.Pro to field a team in the first edition of the Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 (PES2018) League competition that will start in the next few weeks. 

The blaugranes will have a professional team that will compete against other European teams to be announced shortly. Which European teams will be signing on will be worth watching as a number of European clubs with eSports programmes – among them being Paris Saint-Germain, Ajax Amsterdam and Manchester City – are already committed to FIFA.
