"We see huge potential in the East African region, where they are as passionate about their football as anywhere else on the continent. This product builds on our already strong ties with the Southern and West African football market," says Nick Said, Kick Off's Online business manager.

According to Said, there will be further additions to the stable in the near future as Kick Off continues to grow in the African online football market.
