Dele Alli seems to be the latest part of their future plans, who has grown an audience in the gaming sphere by streaming Fortnite on Twitch. He even once performed a Fortnite dance as a goal celebration. <\/p>\n
His role in the organisation will be providing Excel Esports’ rosters in League and Legends and Fortnite some advice and psychological support from his sporting experience, “including how to deal with pressure better, overcoming challenges to perform at their highest ability and bouncing back from setbacks”.<\/p>\n
Speaking about the partnership, Dele said: “Everyone who knows me knows my biggest passion outside of football is gaming and after becoming increasingly involved in the industry over the past few years, it seemed like joining forces with an esports team was a natural step for me to take.<\/p>\n “What drew me to Excel was the fact it’s the biggest British esports brand in the country and competes at the top level of esports but as well as this, I love the fact the brand was born out of a passion for gaming and the values it upholds. <\/p>\n “My knowledge of being a competitive athlete is something I believe can really benefit Excel’s roster of talent as they continue to strive to be better every single day but I’ll also be looking to further my own knowledge and understanding of this truly exciting industry.”<\/p>\n
