Sports Pro Games has signed a sponsorship deal with The Sun newspaper to promote the Football Pro game.
Football Pro is being touted as the world’s first online and mobile football game where users ‘train’ their own virtual player by putting him through a series of drills and coaching challenges.
The partnership will see The Sun take up in-game branding, such as post-match screens, and on pitch-side advertising boards.
Players can upload player’s stats onto Sports Pro’s website where, once the player hits the required level of ability, he is selected to ‘sign’ for a virtual team.
Teams go head-to-head in online League and Cup competitions, and the players develop their Football Pro careers just like players in the real world.
Users can sign for a free trial can then subscribe to for £1 per week.
