Dubai: Al Wasl FC have announced the signing of a new contract with the Saif Belhasa Group of Companies to sponsor their coach Diego Maradona.
Under the new agreement, Maradona will sport Belhasa's logo while on duty with the Al Wasl team in all local competitions and at press conferences.
A conference was held late on Monday in the presence of Marwan Bin Byat, Chairman of Al Wasl Football Company, Saif Belhasa, Chairman of Saif Belhasa Group of Companies, and Maradona himself to confirm the details.
During the conference, Bin Byat expressed his pride in the development in the relationship between the club and Belhasa. This rises from years of affinity between the two, starting from when the group first sponsored Al Wasl three years ago, then the club's football academy last year and now Maradona.
Belhasa said: "We pride ourselves in cooperating with a great team like Al Wasl as we strongly believe in their journey and want to be part of their ambitious destination by all means possible."
Maradona said: "We thank all our supporters and we appreciate the role of Belhasa Group of Companies in the team's development."
