Incredible news from Roger Federer’s camp!
According to the Swiss press, the Swiss sensation will drop Nike to be dressed by Uniqlo. Apparently, the Japanese brand has offered to Federer $30mil for the next 10 years regardless of how long the Swiss sensation will play (Roger is almost 37).
Apparently, Federer’s team didn’t find an agreement with Nike after their contract ended in March.
There are question marks on which shoes Roger will use as he is also wearing Nike.
It’s also surprising that Federer will not bring the RF line to Uniqlo as it is owned by Nike.
Nike owns the RF logo. So if Roger Federer does leave Nike, he doesn’t get to take it with him. https://t.co/4kanNrJbU5

Uniqlo has already dressed Nishikori and Djokovic (until the end of last year).

As for rumors regarding Roger Federer… …what I can confirm at this time is that his Nike contract ended on March 1 of this year.

If Federer really shows up in Uniqlo at Wimbledon, woah. Can’t believe 1) He wanted out from Nike and 2) Nike couldn’t match any offer nor give Roger whatever he wanted. Like : how can Nike lose RF ? #Suspense
