Alessandro Nesta to Ariel Noah Will Liven Up RANS Padel Wars 2025 Event

Raffi Ahmad once again proves he's not just an entertainer but a visionary in sportainment. After successfully bringing RANS Entertainment into football and basketball, the Chairman is now launching an equally ambitious new project: RANS Padel Wars 2025.

The event is scheduled to take place at Mahaka Square, Kelapa Gading, on Saturday, December 6, 2025, and is poised to be a grand stage blending sports, entertainment, and modern competitive spirit. Through RANS Padel Wars 2025, Raffi is determined to bring fresh energy to introduce padel sports to Indonesian society.

Padel, a sport combining tennis and squash, is indeed booming in Europe and Latin America. Now, Raffi wants to ignite that hype in the homeland—certainly in signature RANS style: festive, grand, and star-studded.

Three World Legends Step Onto the Padel Court

RANS Padel Wars is no joke when it comes to guest stars. Raffi has successfully brought in Alessandro Nesta, Cristian Panucci, and Esteban Cambiasso—three world football legends who once graced Europe's top leagues.

Though famed for their achievements on the soccer pitch, all three are now active in padel as semi-professional athletes. They will showcase new skills and passion in this globally trending sport.

This collaboration between football legends and entertainment makes RANS Padel Wars feel like a cross-world reunion—nostalgia for football fans and a fresh surprise for young generations craving entertainment.

Raffi Ahmad and the Story Behind Inviting Global Stars

At a press conference in Petogogan, South Jakarta, Raffi shared an interesting story behind bringing these legends.

"When we created Padel Wars, we saw a lot of hype," he said.

He even revealed having communicated with several other big stars beforehand.

"We were in talks with Puyol and Pique, but Pique was injured, and Puyol couldn't make it," Raffi stated.

For him, bringing these legendary players to Indonesia is a dream come true.

"Thanks to the team who made it happen. These are stars we often watch, and here we try to create a different kind of match," he added.

Indonesian Artists and Celebrities Join the Festivities

It wouldn't be RANS without a magnificent cross-entertainment collaboration. At RANS Padel Wars, several big names from the local entertainment industry will also take the court, including Nagita Slavina, Desta, Ariel Noah, Gading Marten, Medina Dina, and young couple Rizky Febian and Mahalini.

Their presence isn't just for show—it's part of RANS's strategy to broaden padel's appeal among youth. Raffi knows well that celebrity collaborations can be a gateway for the public to discover this new sport.

RANS's Grand Mission for Indonesian Padel

Beyond the star power and media spotlight, Raffi carries a serious mission. He wants padel recognized not just as an elite sport but also as a space for collaboration and community across diverse groups.

"This isn't just about sports—it's about excitement, collaboration, and national spirit," Raffi explained.

This vision aligns with the global trend where padel has become a popular social sport in many countries. Through RANS Padel Wars, Raffi hopes Indonesia can join this wave.

"We want padel to be a sport enjoyed by everyone—from youth, communities, families, to the global society," he affirmed.
