The long-time director at Nike, Mike Nakajima, still cannot regret the fact that the company dropped Roger Federer.
These two parties ended their cooperation in 2018 when the Swiss signed a 10-year contract with “Unikla”, which is worth 300 million dollars.
“It should never have happened. To let someone like that go is an abomination. Roger Federer belonged to Nike until the end of his career. Just like Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Tiger Woods. He is there with the greatest Nike sportsmen of all time”, emphasized Nakajima in his book and added:
“I’m still disappointed. But it happened. We have to get through. It was not my decision, I was not in favor of it”.
