  • OneFootball has released a new NFT project in partnership with Dapper Labs and Animoca Brands.
  • Footballer’s Journey, the project, will share the stories of seven popular footballers from their childhood until success.
  • The collection showcases players who have excelled in the tournament such as Vinicius Junior and Raphael Varane.

OneFootball has launched Footballer’s Journey, a new NFT project, right before the final match of FIFA World Cup 2022. The project is live on the OneFootball marketplace.

The project has been produced in collaboration with Dapper Labs and Animoca Brands. In comic-style books, Footballer’s Journey shares the stories of seven popular players from their childhood to success. Each book has different chapters including Panels, the unique NFTs.  

The news was shared last week on Twitter.

After a sell-out pre-sale, panels of Chapter 1 can be purchased and traded on the OneFootball marketplace that has packs with four panels available at $29. In the first drop, 20,195 NFTs are minted with 155 of them being rare and enabling collectors to acquire an exclusive piece of the storied careers of the players. 

Upon finishing a chapter by assembling the major achievements in the journey of a player, collectors can get access to unique rewards such as meeting the legends in real life. 

The books are free and will be shared by all the seven players on their social media platforms to allow fans to accumulate Chapter 1 panels. The remaining chapters will be launched in the coming year. 

These selected players include- Vinicius Junior, Serge Gnabry, Alphonso Davies, Sadio Mane, Raphael Varane, Minjae Kim and Joao Felix. 

CEO of OneFootball, Jean-Charles Gaudechon, shared his excitement about introducing a completely new NFT pattern to both fans and collectors. Thanks to their collaborations and access to world’s biggest football players, they have made a significant move towards their aim of offering economical, accessible and exclusive web3 experiences that will motivate the adoption of blockchain in football. 

The collection is built on the Flow blockchain and aims to increase the obsession for football. OneFootball Labs will allow federations, clubs, players and leagues to launch world-class digital assets besides fan-based experiences on the Flow blockchain to let fans enjoy their best moments via Dapper. 

The marketplace strives to remain at the peak of Web3 era and support leagues, players, federations and clubs to create direct connection with fans as well as establish new digital experiences. All the collectibles will be available on OneFootball.
