Popular musician, WizKid is missing in photos dug up by netizens showcasing PUMA’s past and present ambassadors.
This comes after the musician revealed that the clothing brand had approached him first before Davido.
It would be recalled that WizKid had alleged that he turned down PUMA because he wanted more.
Reports online alleged that PUMA had signed WizKid for $1M in 2020, but signed Davido for $10M in December 2021.
However, netizens have dug up an old article from the clothing brand’s website where they unveiled their past and present ambassadors who had helped shaped their business.
While many faces were seen there, including that of Davido, WizKid was conspicuously absent.
One netizen, @MissRozapepper wrote …
“Puma has unveiled their ambassadors both past and present who have worked with them and Davido is the latest addition. Davido signed with PUMA in a record-breaking endorsement in 2021. Till dates, no deal by any African artiste has supersede what he signed in 2021 until the renewal of over $10m.
Currently, Davido holds the number 1-3 record for the highest endorsement by Any African artiste and the list goes thus:
PUMA – $10m ( 2yrs, Renewed in 2024)
MARTELL – $7m (2yrs, Renewed in 2023)
PUMA – $5.5m (2yrs, signed in 2021)
MARTELL – $5m (2yrs, Signed in 2021)”
