Red Bull Esports signs Evo 2019 Tekken champ Arslan Ash
The Pakistani Prodigy now has wings.
Red Bull esports has signed Evo Japan and Evo 2019 champion, Arslan “Arslan Ash” Siddique, its first Pakistani Tekken player.
Humbled to be amongst the elite athletes, first one to represent Pakistan in the global @redbullgamimg roster. Alhamdulillah! Thank you@redbullfor giving me wings and of course, my community for supporting! ????????#redbullathlete#redbullpk#givesyouwingspic.twitter.com/8FfT1qwAko
Arslan joins Hoa “Anakin” Luu and Kana “Tanukana” Tani as Red Bull’s top Tekken 7 players.
“His story and the story of Pakistan Tekken has been one of the best stories to come out of the gaming scene. And one of the things Red Bull does best is help tell these stories to the world. I think it’s a perfect combination,” Anakin told ONE Esports.
The big signing should let Arslan compete more frequently overseas, with Red Bull providing financial and logistical support for Arslan’s future tournament runs.
