German Football Club to get away from sponsorship ‘Visit Ravanda’ after the criticism of the fans.
Bayern Munich has indicated that “Visit Ravanda” will be reduced to branding because they are moving “far from professional sponsorship” and the African country has supported the rebels in the neighboring Democratic Republic of Kong (DRC).
When he signed a five -year contract with Ravanda in 223, Bayern rejected the allegations of “sportswashing”. This included advertisements in the stadium, and Bayern called the “to promote tourism and investment opportunities in Ravanda”.
At that time, he changed the sponsorship agreement with Qatar. Ravanda has the same sponsorship with European football giants like Paris Saint-Jermen, Arsenal and Atletico Madrid.
Some Bayer fans showed a large banner in the match in February, and the United Nations Rwanda has supported the rebels in the DRC.
Now the German football champions say they have signed a new agreement with Rwanda, which changes the three-year agreement in the three-year contract, focusing on the development of young football players at the Bayer-intensive Academy in the country.
In a statement, Jan-Christian Drysen, the CEO of Bayern, said in a statement, “We agreed in a constructive discussion about our future direction that a special part of our relationship with the Rwanda Development Board (RDB) was the development of our work through FC Bayern Academy Cadmi on Friday. A statement said.
“That is why we are transforming our professional partnership to the program and extending the FC Bayern Academy Cadmi in Kigali as football and social activities with RDB. It is completely aligned in our strategic goal of playing in Africa.”
As part of this movement, “Visit Ravanda” branding did not specify how quickly it will come down, which is described as transition. Until Friday afternoon, the branding website was still displayed in a section of Listing Club sponsor and partners.
RDB Chief Executive Jean-Gai Africa was cited by Bayern that “partnership with the purpose of accelerating sports development:” This continuous partnership with FC Bayern helps to ensure that we have a widespread development of the tourism, investment and high-performance games as a global center of tourism. “”
The presence of Ravanda in European football has increased constantly since the first partnership with Arsenal to brand the “Gift Ravanda” on the London Club’s shirt sleeve.
The agreement with PSG was signed in 2019 and was renewed in April this year. This includes branding in the stadium and the club World Cup includes shirt-sleeve sponsorship. The three-year agreement was agreed in April to sponsor Atletico in April, which includes branding on training and war-up shirts.
The M23 rebel group is accused of supporting the M23 rebellious group, the strongest of more than 100 armed groups to dominate the DRC in the mineral-rich eastern east. Ravanda has also been accused of exploiting the minerals of the Eastern DRC, used by smartphones, advanced soldiers jets and more.
The Ravandan Officer Authorities have alleged that some people who participated in the Rwandan genocide of 199, 199, have fled to the DRC and have either been working or protected by the Kangoli forces. He has rejected the DRC’s participation in the mineral sector and said that any security action is to protect its own region.
