Johannes Thingnes Bø's million dollar deal

Johannes Thingnes Bø has been the benchmark in biathlon for three years now. During this time he always won the overall World Cup, won nine gold medals at world championships and was crowned Olympic champion at the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang. Success not only makes you known, but also desirable - and so the 27-year-old can now look forward to one of the most lucrative sponsorship contracts in Norway. Like the portal VG reports, Bø has signed an agreement with the Norwegian gas station chain YX Norge. The biathlete is expected to collect five million crowns per year, which corresponds to around 500.000 euros. The partnership lasts five years, which means the following: Bø can look forward to a total of 2,5 million euros in sponsorship money over the next few years. And: He will continue at least until the 2026 Olympic Games. There is also support for the association Who VG writes, this sponsorship contract is one of the most lucrative in Norway. “It is a great agreement that allows me to work hard to develop as a biathlete,” Bø is quoted as saying in the report. But the superstar is not the only one who benefits from YX Norge's support. The company will also receive a handsome sum from the Norwegian Biathlon Association, according to reports VG should be approximately the same as in the Bø case. “As a company, we have great confidence in the power of good role models with solid attitudes and values. We are particularly inspired by biathlon and biathletes and seek greater visibility at both national and local levels. That’s why we love biathlon,” explains YX Norges General Manager Kristian Korsvold.
