MARCA Named Official Strategic Partner for Legends Charity Game 2025
Spain’s most influential sports voice, MARCA, has been confirmed as the Official Media Partner for the Legends Charity Game 2025, holding exclusive coverage rights across the Spanish market.
Set for September 15 in Lisbon, the Legends Charity Game 2025 will bring together football icons for a Portugal Legends vs. World Legends showdown. The match aims to raise €1 million for four selected charities, blending elite sport with a powerful message of unity and social impact, fittingly held in a city set to co-host the 2030 FIFA World Cup.
The Legends Charity Game, organised by Sport Global, will raise funds for four organisations: the Ukrainian Red Cross Society, which continues to provide critical aid amid war; the Portuguese Red Cross, delivering support to communities facing hardship; International Alert, a peacebuilding NGO working in conflict zones worldwide; and Caritas Portugal, which supports vulnerable families facing poverty and displacement.
The pitch will host a lineup of football greats, including Luís Figo, Deco, Nuno Gomes, and Carvalho for the Portugal Legends, and global icons like Kaka, Cafu, Puyol, Michael Owen, Del Piero, and Henrik Larsson for the World Legends.
Rasmus Sojmark, CEO & Founder of SBC Events and Sport Global Group, which organises the Legends Charity Game, said: “With MARCA on board, we’re able to reach millions of fans and drive real impact for the causes this match supports.
“Their reach, especially in Spain and Latin America, will be key to amplifying our message of hope, unity, and charitable giving.”
As the world’s second most visited sports website, MARCA.com stands as a global titan of sports journalism, attracting over 257 million visits in June alone. Known for its authoritative coverage, deep fan engagement, and expansive reach, MARCA’s involvement in the Legends Charity Game guarantees the event will connect with millions of passionate football fans across Spain and the globe.
The match is expected to attract 50,000 fans to Estádio José Alvalade, and reach millions more through an international broadcast and digital livestream. With a world-class production featuring Champions League-style coverage, the Legends Charity Game is set to become one of the most widely viewed and celebrated charity sporting events of the year.
“MARCA’s involvement ensures Lisbon, and the Legends Charity Game will be at the heart of the global football conversation this September,” Sojmark added.
