The partnership focuses on strengthening their presence in the EA Sports FC ecosystem.
Wolves Esports has entered into a partnership with the Portuguese organization Luna Esports to compete in the EA Sports FC ePremier League. This collaboration facilitates the participation of players Diogo “Diogo” Mendes and Goncalo “RastaArtur” Pinto, both of whom are signed to Luna Esports, under the Wolves banner for the UK-based tournament. The financial terms of the agreement remain undisclosed.
The partnership aligns the competitive interests of Wolves Esports, the gaming division of the Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club, with the specialized talent roster of Luna Esports. Founded in 2020 by professional footballer Diogo Jota, Luna Esports has established a presence in titles including EA Sports FC, Dota 2, Rocket League, and PUBG. For Wolves Esports, the move serves to bolster its competitive standing in the ePremier League, which held its group stage from February 28 to March 1, 2026.
This strategic alliance highlights the ongoing integration between traditional football clubs and professional esports organizations. While Wolves Esports maintains a diverse international portfolio—competing in titles such as Call of Duty Mobile, Valorant, and Honor of Kings—this specific venture focuses on the UK market and the EA Sports FC ecosystem. The collaboration leverages the existing professional relationship between the players and the Luna Esports organization to ensure representation in a high-profile domestic tournament.
