Coe vows not to accept Nestle decision to end IAAF sponsorship

Sebastian Coe has vowed the IAAF will not accept a decision by food giant Nestle to abruptly terminate its sponsorship deal with world athletics’ governing body.

Swiss-based Nestle said on Wednesday it was concerned its own reputation could be damaged by association, owing to doping and corruption scandals involving the IAAF, and would be immediately withdrawing its financial backing.
