Nobody would bat an eyelid if one of Valencia's most emblematic buildings, the City of Arts and Sciences, was to add 'and Football' to its name for this weekend only ahead of the eagerly anticipated derby meeting between Valencia CF and Villarreal CF, one of LaLiga Santander's most pulsating local grudge matches.
Portuguese actor, comedian and football nut, Diogo Bataguas, will travel to the city to represent Eleven Sports, LaLiga Santander's official broadcaster in Portugal, and he's sure to bring plenty of laughter to the latest instalment of one of the most entertaining football experience initiatives on the planet.
Diogo will be joined in Valencia by Norwegian influencer and journalist Jonas Giaever and his compatriot and fellow reporter Magnar Kvalvik who both work for Strive - LaLiga Santander's broadcaster in Denmark, Sweden and Norway - and will get to interview one of Los Che's top talents. Incidentally, the Mestalla outfit have close ties to Norway after charismatic Norwegian international striker John Carew enjoyed a spell at the club at the start of the millennium.
During the course of their stay, the visitors will treat their taste buds to the very best of Valencian cuisine, whilst their skills will be put to the test in a series of challenges. The fun-filled bonanza will be rounded off on Saturday night at Mestalla where a true footballing festival awaits the visitors from 20:45 CET.
