PLDC - The press conference of the new
sponsor of Esteghlal Tehran, Chibo of Germany, took place yesterday at the
club headquarters in which Ali Fathollahzadeh, club chairman, and the
representative of Chibo were
present. Ronald Koch and Ebrahim Talebi, head coaches of Esteghlal Tehran,
attended the session also.
Fathollahzadeh commented in this regard, “The clubs intends to increase
its financial sponsors and the presence of Chibo in Iran and its contract
with Esteghlal Tehran may be praised because by taking this step the
company is assisting in the development and growth of football in Iran. At
the same time companies on the national level able to support us
financially never step forward to give their support to clubs.”
“Ronald Koch has played an important role in the attraction of Chibo to
Esteghlal and he even held the discussions in this regard himself.
There are also talks being held with a number of local companies and the
results of these will be announced in due course. The contract between
Esteghlal Tehran and Chibo is without doubt a starting point leading to
further growth for the multi-sponsor culture in this country.”
