Yonex claims Chinese team sponsorship for the next 8 years https://finance.sina.cn/tech/2021-01-06/detail-iiznezxt0871859.d.html https://www.ecosports.cn/Home/Consultation/show/id/19266.html http://www.badmintoncn.com/newsm-view-23693-1.html https://m.sohu.com/a/442793009_493721
The tide of the world has shifted.. Albeit unfortunately. The news has spread like wildfire in the mentioned sovereign state within their great walls since morning and all over their media. None of the stakeholders past and present have commented yet. More to come in the next few days. https://finance.sina.cn/tech/2021-01-06/detail-iiznezxt0871859.d.html
Just saw Chen Long posted some photos on Instagram today. All decked out in Li Ning attire (and still with N55 as always). So maybe a sign that at least he is still with Li Ning? Sent from my SM-G965W using Tapatalk
I saw a lot posts on insta where a lot of players still boasting Li Ning. https://www.instagram.com/badmintonchinese_/?hl=en
This could be an indication for Li Ning keeping the top players (CL, SYQ, CYF, HBJ, ZN, LJH/LYC, JYF/CQC, ZSW/HYQ, WYL/HDP...) and Yonex only sponsoring the second row national team players. Or they just have not gotten the Yonex stuff so far...
the season is over after the wtf finals. i'd guess that's when we would start to see signs of a sponsorship change.
Any info on wheter this will be exclusively for the Chinese team? Like with the jerseys for the Japanese team?
If you're talking about the shirt he's wearing, Racquet Force had a post on Facebook earlier that implied it's for sale in a couple months. Sent from my SM-G965W using Tapatalk
