Samsung drops the Diamond League

Athletics

The information is revealed by the Daily Telegraph : Samsung, title partner of the Diamond League for three years, will not extend its contract with the IAAF beyond the current season. A hard blow for the International Federation and its circuit of international meetings. But the IAAF assures that the Diamond League will continue its adventure and will not be affected by the withdrawal of the South Korean giant. The contract between Samsung and the IAAF is estimated at more than 3 million euros annually.
