The collaboration with Footballco is an extension of last season’s association, which resulted in two trainee reporters creating more than 368 pieces of content which reached more than 34m fans and generated 5.6m video views.
The trainees created content with Manchester City first-team players Riyad Mahrez, Gabriel Jesus and Aymeric Laporte, as well as Manchester City legends.
This year, content created by the trainees will be published across GOAL’s global and Indian editions and social channels which reach an audience of 57 million each month in India and provide valuable experience to young trainee journalists looking to break into the highly competitive field of football journalism.
Andy Jackson, VP Global Football Partnerships at Footballco said: “This campaign provides so much, not just for Manchester City and TECNO Mobile but for the young fans who will get the chance to not only cover their favourite team but to also acquire lifelong skills by working on writing, creating video content and planning from GOAL’s teams of local and global journalists.
“It’s also a huge compliment to work with the club and TECNO again after such a successful campaign last season that made a real difference to those taking part.”
