Why is the image of Rafael Nadal being projected at

This Tuesday, November 19, the image of Rafael Nadal will be projected on the Place du Trocadéro in Paris.

While he will play the last tournament of his career from November 19 during the final phase of the Davis Cup, Rafael Nadal will receive a new tribute from the city of Paris. A marketing stunt from its equipment manufacturer Nike to celebrate the Spanish legend.

The American brand is organizing an operation to honor one or the best player in history. From the Human Rights square, on the Place du Trocadéro, in the 16th arrondissement, the brand will create “a giant projection 10 m high” of Rafael Nadal.

The event will take place from 6:50 p.m. this Tuesday evening and will end shortly before 10 p.m. after almost three hours of show facing the Eiffel Tower. A symbolic place for the one who posed several times in this place with the Coupe des Mousquetaires or during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics where he had recovered the flame from the hands of Zinedine Zidane.
