The UAF reported that in response to its request, Joma said it had nothing to do with the presentation of the new uniform of the Russian Zenit.
"In response to a request from UAF Marketing, the head office of the Spanish company Joma said that it had nothing to do with the development and presentation of the new uniform of the Russian club.
The company's letter reads: "We confirm that Joma's headquarters in Spain has suspended all our sponsorship activities with sports teams from Russia and Belarus. We have no direct contact - neither commercial nor sponsorship - with any professional club there. (in Russia and Belarus - ed.)and we were not aware of and have nothing to do with the launch and customization/individual style of the new Zenit uniform.
In response to the question of how it happened that the Russian club presented the uniforms to Joma, the letter states that these "shirts were distributed by Wildberries. This is a retailer that can receive goods from our catalog on the open market, where we have no control," the UAF Facebook page said.
