Contrary to previous expectations, 21sportsgroup, the German online and offline retailer based in Mannheim, has finally agree to take over Planet Sports, the German action sports retailer. The company had announced in January its intention to make the acquisition but then backed out of the deal, claiming that Planet Sports' parent company, Puccini Germany, had not met all the conditions. Puccini subsequently filed for bankruptcy protection. The terms of the new takeover agreement could not be learnt. Planet Sports operated a web store and 12 physical shops in Germany.
