The NFL is interested in the possibility of playing a regular season match in Abu Dhabi.
“We do not know timing, and it is really a` `if ” to find out if we are going to play a game,” said Peter O’Reilly, executive vice-president of the NFL, Club Business, Major Events and International. “But I would say that it is a market where there is a strong interest in our game, a strong interest in developing our game all year round. I think that is why you see three clubs arouse your hand to understand the viability of the potential for a regular season game. Important events in other sports in recent years, whether the NBA or world football.
In total, 29 clubs will participate in the world market program in 21 international markets – against 25 clubs on 19 markets in 2024 – while the NFL continues to prioritize global growth.
