Found this on wiki



Leukemia, also spelled leukaemia, is a group of cancers that usually begin in the bone marrow and result in high numbers of abnormal white blood cells.[8] These white blood cells are not fully developed and are called blasts or leukemia cells. Symptoms may include bleeding and bruising problems, feeling tired, fever, and an increased risk of infections.] These symptoms occur due to a lack of normal blood cells.Diagnosis is typically made by blood tests or bone marrow biopsy.

I can't imagine there's a PR person there because he/she needs the boot. That's the same way they used MTN ads on a Glo sponsored league.

The contract with Adidas expired and Nike has been the kit sponsor since 2015.
