Neymar trembles: Puma will offer him a sum similar to a Nike star to change brands
The German firm wants to stay with another player and they will offer him the same contract that the Brazilian has.
Throughout history, the different sports brands were in charge of having the main sports figures and that they stay for their entire lives. However, in recent times, this paradigm has been modified as companies do everything possible to keep the stars regardless of the cost. Such is the case of Neymar, who was one of the most important faces of Nike and at the end of last year decided to sign for Puma. And in the last hours news broke that surprised even the Brazilian himself: the German company is willing to offer a floor similar to that which Ney has to a Premier League figure, so that he can leave "the pipe" and dress with they.
Neymar joined Lukaku, Agüero, Griezmann, among others. He also stayed with Manchester City and Arsenal, to name a few clubs. However, he is now going for another brutal step: hiring Marcus Rashford. "Rashford signed with Nike at age 11 and is the youngest footballer to sign for the iconic brand, a decision he holds close to his heart. But that longstanding partnership is now under significant threat with Puma", the Daily said. Mail.
Puma's idea is to have Rashford because he considers him a key footballer for Manchester United, the England National Team and he is also equally influential both on and off the field of play. Puma's offer would be 15 million euros, seven million less than what Neymar earns.
For its part, Nike, aware of this offer, will seek to retain the English striker who shines at Old Trafford. Rashford has now been in the first team for five seasons, accumulating 255 games, with 85 goals and 40 assists, being one of the club's most beloved players.
