After a run of dodgy strips by Adidas, it’s good to see the Super Eagles back in Nike.
According to the Chairman of the Marketing and Sponsorship Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation, Emeka Inyama
“Puma and Under Armour are some of the brands that did not show interest. NIKE was reluctant as well, and don’t forget that we were also negotiating from the weak position of a Federation whose flagship team had failed to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations.
“NIKE was reluctant but after investigating thoroughly the calibre of people running the Federation presently, they consented and said these are people they trust and could do business with.”
