OKX reveals giant street art of Manchester City players

OKX Celebrates becoming the Official Training Kit Partner of Manchester City for the 2022/2023 season with cyber-punk inspired creations
OKX has commissioned renowned street artist Akse P19 to create artworks featuring Manchester City players Haaland, Grealish, Cancelo and Stones, across four locations in Manchester

MANCHESTER, 15TH July, 2022 – OKX, one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency platform, today revealed giant murals of Manchester City players Erling Haaland, Jack Grealish, João Cancelo and John Stones across four high-football locations in Manchester.

The cyber-punk inspired street art has been specially commissioned to celebrate OKX becoming the Official Training Kit Partner of Manchester City for the 2022/2023 season. The agreement will see OKX featured across the training kit of the Manchester City men’s and women’s first teams.

Renowned street artist Akse_P19 and Global Street Art Agency have spent a week creating the attention-grabbing pieces. The murals are fitted out with QR codes that City fans can scan for a chance to win their very own season ticket in the OKX Hospitality Box.

Akse_19 AKA, Eric Akse, is a French born graffiti artist of Vietnamese heritage who has been based in Manchester since 1997. Akse started painting in 1992 and is a member of the P19 Graffiti Crew.

Eric Akse said: “As an artist who has been living and working in Manchester for the last 25 years, it means a lot to be able to bring such iconic players to life across this great city. We wanted to create big, bold statements, using cyber-punk inspired animation that would present the players in a new light. It is a statement of OKX’s passion and commitment to the Man City fans and community ahead of the new football season.”

A full list of the mural locations follows

John Stones: 11 Newton Street
Erling Haaland: 75 Port Street
João Cancelo: 60 Shudehill
Jack Grealish: 7 Thomas Street

OKX’s future ambitions with Manchester City include continuing to supercharge the fan experience, providing key learning initiatives and resources to help customers trade responsibly, and delivering programs to empower and enrich the Manchester community. OKX was announced as Manchester City’s Official Cryptocurrency Exchange Partner in March.
