I read the article. It says long term contract. I don’t see where it says 9 years. Maybe he’s been with Nike for 5 years and the next contract is 4? Nike doesn’t do 9 year contracts for anyone- especially if you aren’t a medal threat.
this is correct. engels' deal is a 4-year contract that runs thru 2026.
he mentioned to the journalist that it would be 9 (total) years with nike, but the journalist mistook that statement and thought it was a 9-year deal.
