Dnipro-1 Commercial Director Vyacheslav Fridman commented on the information about the creation of a single TV pool, UPL-TV.
"No one has ever merged before. We have given away betting and sponsorship rights, but we are not giving away television rights. Dnipro-1, Dynamo and Zorya have a contract with 1+1 for this year and next, and we will comply with the terms of the agreement.
In the summer, we will sit down, listen to all the proposals and make a decision. We will not have any discussions until June. We haven't even delved into it now, because we won't be joining anything in the spring. When the championship is over, we will talk. Why should we think about what will happen in June in January?
We have a valid contract with 1+1, we are law-abiding people and we will fulfil it. We have the right to review the contract every season. If there is an interesting offer [for the UPL TV TV pool], we will come to an agreement. Maybe 1+1 will find it unprofitable to cooperate with us," Friedman said.
