Doha: Ooredoo, leading regional sponsor of sporting excellence, hosted Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in Doha recently, giving fans the opportunity to meet some of PSG’s biggest football stars.

Key members of the PSG football squad visited the 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum in the Aspire Zone, one of Doha’s newest and most innovative sporting attractions. Joined by five young players, the PSG teammates participated in a meet-and-greet, where 50 guests — including Ooredoo management, staff and competition winners — who got to see their football heroes up close.

Other activities included a beat -the-goalkeeper challenge and the players autographing dozens of collectable cards, created by Ooredoo. The fun ended in a group photo, emphasising the close links between PSG and Ooredoo.

Sabah Rabiah Al Kuwari, Director PR at Ooredoo, said: “With some of the biggest stars of Paris Saint-Germain touring Qatar, it is fitting that Ooredoo — a leading supporter of sport and especially football — should welcome them.” 

“These role models, a mixture of established and future stars, personify the Ooredoo ethos of a healthy lifestyle and sporting excellence,” he added.

An earlier “name the player” competition allowed prize winners to be among those meeting with PSG in Doha.
