The 13-episode series is described as a soccer comedy created by Mike Lam, that will shoot entirely in Mexico.
The untitled project will follow a family feud among heirs of a football club after the owner's death.
Gaz Alazraki - who directed Mexican box office hit We Are the Nobles - will take on the series from Alazraki Entertainment and will use a cast from all over Latin America, including Nobles star Luis Gerardo Mendez.
The series will best serve Netflix's Latin America service and the large Spanish-speaking population in the US.
"Gaz has the disruptive vision and creative storytelling we were looking for in producing our first original series in Mexico," Netflix's chief content officer Ted Sarandos said.
"We're confident our members in a market as important to us as Mexico and Latin America will love this family comedy."
Nexflix recently revealed that it plans to increase its subscription prices for new subscribers by $1 to $2.
