A very unclear situation is unfolding.
The investigation into the situation is ongoing.
Details: According to The Athletic, commentator Nick Gardner received a letter offering him “confidential cooperation.”
Gardner claims the letter came from an advertising agency, proposing a “potential collaboration” where he would be paid to act as a PR manager on social media for Ballon d’Or contender Ousmane Dembélé.
Once this information became public, The Athletic began its own investigation to clarify the situation.
It was later found that the letter was sent by Bangrr International, an Indian company that focuses on advertising and luxury brand content.
After reaching out to the agency, The Athletic learned the message was sent by an 18-year-old intern without authorization from management.
Reminder: Rodri names his possible successor for the Ballon d’Or: Yamal or Dembélé?
