eFootball League is an Esports tournament that made its first appearance last season. For KONAMI, the league’s inaugural 2019-20 season was a tremendous success and saw a fantastic turnout from established esports athletes, aspiring esports players, as well as a great deal of support from several major European clubs. As a result, the eFootball League will be returning this year with a scheduled kickoff date sometime in early December. Just like last season, the tournament will be divided into two categories: eFootball.Pro, the professional tournament aimed at elite esports players; and eFootball.Open, the amateur tournament open to all comers.
