Photos of Rafa Nadal are being replaced on the stand for the Baleares at the World Travel Market

One of the hoteliers on the islands told El Mundo that ‘It seems that they have not paid Nadal what was agreed and that is why they have to take him down’. It seems the advertising contract is on ‘stand by’, but the hotelier has said that it is almost as expensive to redesign the stand as to pay the player what he is owed.

The contract is reported to have been worth six million € over three years and was signed two years ago, to use the image of the World Number One tennis player and see him in TV ads for the islands.
