Three Easy Solutions for Chelsea's "Three" Problem
Around one month ago, Three suspended their partnership with Chelsea following the sanctions on owner Roman Abramovich. The club are, however, still playing with the logo in their kits. We provide the club with three solutions for it.
Chelsea seem unwilling to remove the Three logo
Apply Patch With Ukrainian Flag Over Three Logo
The cheapest solution is possibly also the best. Chelsea could cover the Three logo with the Ukrainian flag to show their solidarity with the Ukrainian people.
Buy Cheap Nike Teamwear & Apply Chelsea Crest
Another easy and cheap solution would be to buy a blue Nike teamwear kit like the Vaporknit III or Challenge IV jersey. With the Vaporknit III featuring Nike's best technology, there would be no disadvantage in terms of tech here.
The Nike Vaporknit III jersey is available for around 30 GBP from Amazon UK.
Wear 2022 Pre-Match Jersey - Trivago Did not Suspend Chelsea Sponsorship
Trivago one month ago announced that they won't suspend or withdraw their sponsorship with Chelsea following the sanctions on owner Roman Abramovich. Chelsea could therefore wear their Nike 2022 pre-match shirt that makes a great kit.
However, it would require an exemption from UEFA/Premier League to allow Chelsea to wear the pre-match shirt.
Should the government of the UK take action?
It seems that Chelsea are not willing to play without the logos of the three main and Hyundai sponsors on the sleeves or remove them - there would be many easy and cheap solutions. We believe that Chelsea's two shirt sponsors should take action and end their partnership with Chelsea. Otherwise, the British government should take action here and punish the telecommunications company Three, for example.
Should the UK government penalize Three/Hyundai/the club for breaking the sanctions? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
