Juan Mata: a uniting example from the Manchester United midfielder

Already a UEFA EURO 2012, UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League winner, Juan Mata is also one of the most socially conscious active players around, setting the perfect example off the field with Common Goal, the charity he co-founded in 2017.

Common Goal makes positive change in socially challenged communities, using football’s power and popularity to tackle gender inequality, promote inclusion and provide more opportunities for underprivileged children.

By inspiring players, coaches, and other personalities, including UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin, to commit 1% of their salaries to the project, Mata is proving football can make a direct positive change to communities all over the world.

Juan Mata, #EqualGame Award winner:

“I was proud of the work that our organisations are doing there and proud of the stories of people that have overcome difficult problems. This is what we want to do through Common Goal – to give people a choice to decide their futures.”JAMB Result
