Manchester City’s Alex Greenwood Drops Three Original NFT Trainers at OKX Collective Metaverse Exhibition
OKX, a world-leading Web3 technology company, together with Manchester City women’s player Alex Greenwood, today launched an exhibition in the OKX Collective metaverse to showcase three original NFT trainers designed by Greenwood.
The NFT trainers, which were designed collaboratively by Greenwood and NFT designer Nas, are focused on key traits that lead to success on the football pitch and in life. Entitled ‘Adaptable’, ‘Calm & Patience’ and ‘Commitment & Passion,’ the NFTs are available for free via airdrop and as part of the ‘AG5 x OKX’ NFT collection on the OKX NFT Marketplace.
Alex Greenwood said: “Working closely with OKX on these trainer designs has been great. They give a sense of how I approach challenges on the pitch. I’m excited to see them launch in my personal OKX metaverse showroom!”
Haider Rafique, Global Chief Marketing Officer at OKX, said: “With any metaverse, the next step after creating the environment is to enhance the experience by curating objects and items that fans are eager to engage with and collect. This is an incredible way to bring fans into the experience and let them interact with their favorite athletes or public figures in a way they haven’t experienced before. This is how we make the metaverse a living, breathing environment.”
Visitors to the OKX Collective metaverse will be able to watch exclusive behind-the-scenes content on Alex and Nas’s creative process while entering competitions to win prizes, including passes to team trainings, match tickets and much more.
Fans will also be able to revisit the metaverse DJ set performed by Jack Grealish and Oliver Heldens as well as the instructive metaverse experiences with Manchester City Captain İlkay Gündoğan and defender Rúben Dias.
