Finally, it is yes.
Initially prohibited from displaying the name of a company specializing in the sale of sex toys on its jersey, FC Emmen (1st division) obtained the green light on Thursday from the Dutch football federation, the KNVB.
The players of this city in the north of the Netherlands will baptize their new tunic this Sunday against Willem II.
After discussions with the Dutch federation, the club obtained permission to advertise EasyToys, a city company in the online sale of dildos, vibrators and other bondage equipment as a jersey sponsor.
The agreement is currently for one season, compared to three originally, and provides that the brand will not be used on shirts intended for sale to young people, FC Emmen announced in a statement.
50,000 euros annually
The initial contract was to allow FC Emmen, which has played in Eredivisie since 2018, to touch 50,000 euros annually.
The club, who started their season with a blank jersey, said they were "convinced that the strength of the combination of the two companies will be a good collaboration".
The KNVB, quoted by the Belga agency, welcomes the changes made by the club and specifies that the contract could be extended for three years in December if "the AVBV (
Editor's note: the general assembly of professional football
) considers that" there is no objection ”.
