German sportswear brand Adidas has denied ending its sponsorship with
the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF).
It was reported in January by the BBC that Adidas was to terminate its deal with the IAAF four years early.
Adidas CEO Herbert Hainer confirmed at a press conference that its
deal with the IAAF is still running but they are in close contact with
the athletics governing body regarding the recent doping scandal.
"We have not terminated our contract (with the International Association of Athletics Federations),” Herbert Hainer said.
"The IAAF (the athletic body) knows exactly where we are going with
our policy in terms of doping. We are in very close contact with the
IAAF and will watch very closely what they are doing with this problem."
