"I am happy with my partnership with KONAMI. Previously, we did some great things to promote football, my country and the video game generation," Gabigol said. "This time, we want to do new and creative things that fans don't expect, for now, just wait and see!"
Gabigol's professional career began as a 16-year-old phenomenon at the iconic Santos FC, an organization with a pedigree to produce attackers quickly and talent. In that team’s uniform, Gabigol caught Konami's attention from the start and quickly signed his first contract as ambassador before his move to Inter Milan.
"Gabigol's skills and the overall evolution of his game since returning to Brazil with Flamengo have been inspiring," said Yuta Kose, president of Konami Digital Entertainment Inc. "He defines the types of players we are proud to have as eFootball ambassadors."
"eFootball™" is a brand-new redesign of KONAMI's popular "PES" game series. This change represented a big leap, as the brand changed along with the addition of a new graphics engine for football games, gameplay advances and title redevelopment with the "free to play" model on all compatible devices.
"eFootball" is a constantly evolving platform whose goal is to maximize fun and accessibility for football fans around the world.
