The Colombian superstar also tagged Burna Boy in the post, confirming the highly anticipated collaboration ahead of the tournament.
Shakira is already known for delivering some of football’s most iconic World Cup songs, including Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), while Burna Boy continues to represent African music globally through Afrobeats.
Although Nigeria national football team may not be represented at the World Cup itself, Softfootball believes Burna Boy’s involvement will still bring excitement and strong African representation to the tournament’s entertainment side.
