2006-07 Benfica Adidas Home Shirt RUI COSTA #10 - 8/10 - (XL)

Official Adidas Benfica home shirt from the 2006-07 season, printed with the name and number of Rui Costa, the most elegantly gifted and technically accomplished Portuguese midfielder of his generation whose sublime passing range, intelligent movement and ability to dictate the tempo and direction of matches with a composure and vision that placed him among the finest creative midfielders European football has ever produced during his extraordinary years at Fiorentina and AC Milan before his deeply emotional return to the club where his career had begun. This shirt covers the twilight of one of Portuguese football's most celebrated and romantically significant careers as Rui Costa returned to the Estádio da Luz to bring down the curtain on a journey that had taken him from the Benfica academy to the very summit of European club football and back again, wearing the iconic number 10 shirt for a fanbase that had never forgotten the brilliance of the player they had first fallen in love with as a teenager and who welcomed him home with the warmth and reverence reserved only for those who have given everything to a club and its supporters across a lifetime of dedication and extraordinary achievement. A named and numbered Rui Costa Benfica home shirt from his farewell season at the club is among the most romantically significant and collectible pieces of Portuguese football memorabilia in existence, bearing the name of one of the most gifted and beloved players the country has ever produced. A one of one original — when it's gone, it's gone forever.
