“We recognize the significant interest in blockchain and the opportunity it provides us to engage further our global fanbase and we are confident that the Manchester City Fan Token will prove a popular addition to our digital line-up,” Stephan Cieplik, SVP of global partnerships sales at City Football Group, statement adds.

Earlier this year, AC Milan’s fan token generated $6 million in revenue within its first day of trading. Chiliz is investing $50 million toward expanding into the U.S. and pursuing fan token partnerships with clubs from the top five major North American professional sports leagues, stated Sporttechie.
