Puma scoops Bafana Bafana stars
Global sports brand Puma has signed sponsorship deals with soccer sensation Jabu Pule and rising stars Sandile Ndlovu and Thabiso Rammile who have both broken into the Bafana Bafana squad. Pule plays for SV Mattersberg in Austria, Rammile is a left back at glamour team Sundowns while Ndlovu strikes for Dynamos and is the leading scorer in the PSL.
Brett Bellinger, Puma marketing manager says: "Pule is a talented footballer and one of the 'Golden Boys' of South African soccer in recent years. His flamboyance on the field closely matches Puma's style and it is for this reason we have selected him to spearhead our football portfolio." The soccer stars wear Puma soccer boots and look sharp in Puma 'sportlifestyle' footwear, apparel and accessories off the pitch.
Puma is active in the African soccer market having also signed Senegal's national team this month - they join fellow African giants Cameroon in the Puma fold.
