Instant Foot indicated that Michael Olise had played in recent seasons without a contract with a brand and refused sponsorship offers in order to freely choose his boots, particularly the Nike Hypervenom Phantom III, which has been off the market since 2018. According to the account, Nike plans to discontinue its Phantom range by 2027 to relaunch the Hypervenom, and Olise's loyalty to this model has convinced the brand that there is still strong demand. The French player could thus become the new face of the Hypervenom, a role once held by Neymar. #MichaelOlise #Nike #Football (translated)

Varizan wrote that Bump, the agency founded by Squeezie, had established itself in Los Angeles, where a team was supposed to connect with American creators and publishers. He estimated that this presence could offer new business opportunities for Gentle Mates, particularly for its Call of Duty team, in an American market he described as important for esports. He reminded that Bump was notably working with gaming and esports creators Skyyart, Nikof, Mel, and Gotaga, and managed partnerships and sponsorship for Gentle Mates, the club of Squeezie, Gotaga, and Brawks. According to the figures cited by Varizan, the agency, founded in 2020 after Squeezie left Webedia, counted more than 70 creators, totaled 3 billion views, and had 300 active clients, and had completed 1,500 partnerships in 2025. Varizan presented Bump as the commercial structure of the club and indicated that the model combining creators, esports club, and sponsorship organized by the agency was already in place in France. #BumpAgency #Esport #Squeezie (translated)

A now published ruling by the Premier League commission finds Manchester City guilty in nearly all charges and could lead to the club losing up to seven championships, as it allegedly concealed its financial situation for years and violated sponsorship rules. #ManchesterCity #PremierLeague #Finanzskandal (translated)

🚨💣 BREAKING : ▪️#ManCity will attempt to demonstrate its innocence by asserting that certain sponsorship contracts were partly financed by the Abu Dhabi government, rather than by the Abu Dhabi United Group, the private company owned by Sheikh Mansour. According to this argument, these agreements would therefore not constitute a violation of the rules. ▪️ The "irrefutable evidence" put forth by #ManCity throughout the case with the Premier League consists of bank statements from the government and testimonies presented at the hearing. They show that money was transferred from government accounts to sponsors, who then used these funds to pay @ManCity. ▪️The independent commission determined that Sheikh Mansour was unaware of what it describes as a series of "fictitious" agreements. On appeal, #ManCity is expected to argue that it is implausible for Mansour to have been unaware that nearly £830 million of his own money was being used in this manner. The club is also likely to contest the use of the term "fictitious," arguing that it is not merely a word indicating something suspicious, but a legal term that has been improperly applied in this case. ▪️#ManCity's lawyers are also expected to challenge the time taken by the independent commission to render its verdict. They will argue that, in this type of case, decisions should normally be made within three months after the hearing ends, so that judges maintain an accurate memory of the examined elements. According to City, this delay would render the decision “legally unsafe.” The club will also emphasize that it presented 24 witnesses at the hearing, while the Premier League provided no witnesses confirming the existence of the alleged conspiracy.
