Wei Wei will sing a brand new song with the players," Jan Kallman, PR and Communictaion Manager of VSG, told Asian Football Business Review.

"This is a fantastic project for all parts. For VSG there will be global awareness of our concept and a great opportunity to increase our business. With expanding business more children of the world will make it in to our schools and soccer academies. Asia is also a very hot market for European soccer clubs. They are looking for possibilities to broaden their fan base," he said.
