Lawyers for Elite say the breach occurred when Rangers signed a deal with Castore, a Manchester-based brand which counts tennis ace Sir Andy Murray as one of its investors. Lawyers for Ashley’s firm went to the High Court in London seeking an injunction to stop the deal between Elite and Rangers from going ahead. Judge Persey ordered that Rangers couldn’t “wear any Official Rangers Technical Products designed by, supplied by, gifted by or manufactured by Elite or Hummel, or bearing the Hummel brand”. The court has previously heard how Rangers signed a deal with Castore in May 2020 and that this deal breached the terms of the Hummel one. They later came into court shortly after midday and told Lord Braid that they needed more time to negotiate.
