The League Management Company chairman, Shehu Dikko, has disclosed that the Nigeria Professional Football League is close to sealing a partnership deal with the Spanish league side.
Dikko said the LMC is planning to give the Nigerian topflight a face lift by modelling the domestic
league after some European leagues that are doing well, and La Liga management is the first to jump
on board.
"As a developing league, we have continuously sought collaborations with some of the global model league management and La Liga is the first of such coming into fruition."
"There are several benefits that will accrue from this relationship and we intend to tap deeply into their over 25 years of experience of commercialization of football," said the LMC Chairman.
The Spanish delegation which is expected to arrive on Monday will sign a memorandum of understanding for a partnership with their Nigerian counterpart which will cover exchange of knowledge, trainings for Nigeria Professional Football League Club Coaches and Administrators, La Liga and NPFL Clubs’ exchanges, marketing, commercial, promotional activities and Youth Development.
Dikko said the visit is a landmark for the NPFL as it will be a culmination of strategies for extensive and wholesome development of the league.
"The formal unveiling of the partnership between the NPFL and La Liga will hold on Tuesday while we would create opportunity for stakeholders to interact with the delegation at some point during the day." Dikko further disclosed.
