England and Tottenham Hotspur football star Dele Alli is set to battle elite duo teams alongside his teammate Kyle Walker-Peters as they will be competing online in Gamers Without Borders’ Fortnite tournament on Thursday 21st May at 7pm CEST.
Dele, a huge fan of the game, will face no less than 50 duo teams who will be competing online from around the world – ten from the Middle East & Africa and 40 from across Europe. They will each battle it out to win a share of the $1m charity prize fund, which they will then donate to an organization of their choice leading the global fight against COVID-19.
Alongside Alli and Walker-Peters, professional players such as Benjyfish (NRG) and MrSavage (100Thieves_EU) have also confirmed their participation.
Gamers Without Borders has already seen US$6.5million out of its US$10million charity prize fund already donated to global charities tackling COVID-19.
