A video by Burna Boy was posted along with the momentous announcement on the UEFA Champions League’s Twitter page.
Hi everyone, this is Burna Boy, and I’ve got some major news, he said in the video.
“I’ll be giving a performance at the Pepsi UEFA Champions League Final Kick-Off Show. Let’s move forward now!
Eight clubs will battle for the title of European champions in the Champions League, which is presently in the quarterfinal stage.
These are Real Madrid, the current champions, and AC Milan, Inter Milan, Napoli, Manchester City, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Benfica, and other teams.
Burna Boy just put on a powerful performance during the halftime show of the 2023 NBA All-Star game in February.
He delighted the audience with his hit songs, selling African music to the world and basketball lovers alongside fellow Nigerian musicians Tems and Rema.
The thrilling game between Team Lebron and Team Giannis featured several African athletes, and the night was topped off by fantastic African music. Team Lebron lost 175-184 to Team Giannis.
