Herbalife Signs LA Galaxy Midfielder Riqui Puig to Sports Nutrition Sponsorship - Seite 2

“Herbalife represents the gold standard in sports nutrition and making positive change in communities around the world. I am proud to continue working with their team of sports performance and nutrition experts to help keep me on my game. On behalf of Herbalife I’m also really looking forward to the opportunity to connect with fans and young athletes both here in Los Angeles and around the world to help encourage them to develop healthy habits,” said Puig.

Considered one of the brightest stars to come out of Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy in recent years, Puig began his career in 2013 and made his way up as a substitute during the Segunda División Championship in 2018. He then made his La Liga debut in 2019 and was promoted to first team shortly after. He helped Barcelona claim the 2017-18 UEFA Youth League title, tallying three goals and three assists in ten games played, with ten starts in the competition.

The 24-year-old Spanish prodigy won the 2018-2019 La Liga title and scored the winning goal in the penalty shootout against Real Sociedad in the Supercopa de España. Puig signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with the LA Galaxy in August of 2022 on a free transfer from FC Barcelona, helping the team qualify for the 2022 MLS Cup Playoffs.

Herbalife proudly sponsors more than 150 athletes, teams, and leagues around the world, including five Olympic Committees, that exemplify the company’s commitment to a healthy, active life supported by good nutrition. Herbalife has sponsored the Galaxy's jersey for 17 consecutive seasons, the longest-running jersey sponsorship in MLS history.
