2002-04 Schalke Adidas Home Shirt SAND #11 - 7/10 - (14-15 Years)

Official Adidas Schalke 04 home shirt from the 2002-04 era, printed with the name and number of Ebbe Sand, the Danish striker whose prolific goalscoring and natural finishing ability made him one of the most reliable and celebrated forwards in the Bundesliga during his time at the Veltins-Arena, a player whose goals were central to Schalke's efforts to challenge the dominance of Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich during one of the most competitive and passionately contested periods in the history of German football. This shirt covers a deeply significant era for Schalke supporters, the years following the most heartbreaking moment in the club's history when they were crowned Bundesliga champions for approximately three minutes in 2001 before Hamburg's late equaliser against Bayern Munich snatched the title away in circumstances so cruel and so dramatically agonising that they have become one of the defining stories of German football folklore. A named and numbered Sand Schalke home shirt in the youth size is a particularly unusual and collectible find, combining the name of one of the Bundesliga's most dependable and celebrated strikers of the era with a size that almost never surfaces in this condition on the collector's market. A one of one original — when it's gone, it's gone forever.
