LG has dropped sacked Australian vice-captain David Warner following the ball-tampering scandal in South Africa.
The electronics company on Wednesday said its current deal with the opening batsman was in its final weeks.
“In light of recent events, we have decided not to renew our partnership,” a spokeswoman said.
“LG Australia will always look to work with ambassadors that share our core brand values and we take these relationships incredibly seriously to ensure we put our customers, employees and stakeholders first.”
Warner, who signed with the company in late 2014, was so effusive in his praise for the company’s OLED TVs in advertisements, the commercials were quickly parodied by fans.
“I love my OLED. It’s one of the things I look forward to when I come home,” Warner said in one ad.
“I wish it was compact enough that I could put it in my suitcase and take it away.”
Warner’s website states he is a brand ambassador of Gray-Nicolls, Asics, Channel Nine, Toyota and the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
