Maxim Noreau's agent denies rumors about his client leaving Bern

As Noreau's agent Paul Hamel says to Ticinonline, his client has no intention of leaving Bern. "These rumors are totally unfounded," he says and adds: "My client is under contract with Bern for another season. His only goal at this time is to help the Bears win their third consecutive title."

At the beginning of the week, Le Matin reported that the 29-year-old Canadian defenseman is no longer part of SC Bern's plans for the upcoming season. "It was a mere hypothesis, without properly verifying the facts," Hamel says to Ticinonline.
