Konami's eFootball Welcomes New Brand Ambassador: Lamine Yamal
Konami's popular multiplatform football simulator, eFootball, has a new brand ambassador: the rising football star, Lamine Yamal. Yamal, a product of FC Barcelona's famed La Masia academy, is now playable within the game.
His in-game representation features the unique "Acceleration Burst" skill, a reflection of his impressive on-field dribbling abilities. This addition marks a significant step for eFootball, further solidifying its position in the football gaming world.
Yamal joins other high-profile players like Neymar Jr. and Takefusa Kubo, who also possess the Acceleration Burst skill, in the game's roster. He's available as an Epic-level player.

To celebrate Yamal's arrival, eFootball is launching a Carnival Campaign. Players can earn free eFootball Coins and exclusive rewards, including a limited-edition carnival uniform, by logging in.
This collaboration highlights eFootball's strategy to attract a younger audience by featuring prominent young players and integrating elements of contemporary football culture. The move positions eFootball to compete more effectively with established rivals in the sports simulation market.
