5 d. ago The smell of victory: boom in classic football shirts shows no sign of fading

What was once simply a garment that declared your affiliation to a club is now a global business earning millions from collectors of vintage kitsOn the second floor of an unprepossessing building on the outskirts of Amsterdam, there is a metal cabinet that destroys footballers’ DNA. The contraption belongs to MatchWornShirt and was part of a deal to sell the kits of Real Madrid players to the public. To allay concerns that the genetic material of Cristiano Ronaldo might escape into the wild, the steel wardrobe was built so that every shirt could be blasted by a germicidal lamp.For new, read old, because MatchWornShirt sells precisely what the company’s name suggests: kits that have been stuck to the bodies of professional athletes.

The very shirt Cole Palmer had on when he scored four first-half goals against Brighton last s...

2 w. ago Chelsea and Cole Palmer storm back at Real Betis to win Conference League

There were 65 minutes on the clock when a chill spread around Stadion Wroclaw and Real Betis’s flame fizzled out. That was the moment when Cold Palmer finally emerged, decided that enough was enough and took an icy hold on a final that was in danger of running away from Chelsea. That was the moment when disaster was averted, Betis’s hopes of winning the Uefa Conference League faded and it became clear that Todd Boehly, Behdad Eghbali and the rest of Chelsea’s leadership team would be on the pitch at full time, drinking it all in after claiming their first piece of silverware in the men’s game since their takeover in 2022.The predictability of the outcome did not make the feeling any less sweet for Boehly and Eghbali after a season that began with their differences getting a very public airing.
