Konami Digital Entertainment Co., Ltd. is excited to announce that it will serve as partner for the Japan Professional Football League's (J.League's) Monthly MVP and Meiji Yasuda J.League’s Goal of the Month awards for the 2023 season. KONAMI has been a proud partner of the Monthly MVP award for five years running, beginning with the 2019 season, while the Goal of the Month partnership is entering its second year.

The Monthly MVP award is presented to the most outstanding player in each division (J1, J2 and J3) every month, as determined by a selection committee. As before, the recipients will be officially recognized as a "Meiji Yasuda J.League KONAMI Monthly MVP" (or "KONAMI Monthly MVP" for short).

Similarly, the Goal of the Month award will recognize the most remarkable goals every month, also determined by a selection committee. The official name of this award is the "Meiji Yasuda J.League KONAMI Goal of the Month" ("KONAMI Goal of the Month" for short).

As a J.League Top Partner, KONAMI has been proud to help promote Japanese soccer in a variety of ways. Last season, we held an awards ceremony, interviewing the recipients and asking them to walk viewers through their most memorable moments of the month. We have also created content aimed at fans of both soccer and gaming, such as adding Monthly MVP recipients as special cards in our mobile game "J.League Club Championship."

Additionally, new content for this season will be revealed on the "J.League Club Championship" official website and its in-game Information page as they become available.

Through its partnership with J.League, Konami Digital Entertainment aims to broaden soccer’s appeal, bringing the fun and excitement of the sport to an ever greater audience.
