2006-08 Netherlands Nike Home Shirt V. NISTELROOY #9 - 9/10 - (M)

Official Nike Netherlands home shirt from the 2006-08 era, printed with the name and number of Ruud van Nistelrooy, one of the most clinical and devastatingly efficient strikers European football has ever produced whose predatory instinct, movement in the penalty area and ice cold finishing ability made him one of the most feared centre forwards on the planet during his peak years at Manchester United and Real Madrid where he scored goals at a rate that placed him among the greatest of his generation. This shirt covers the period of van Nistelrooy's return to the Dutch national team following the 2006 World Cup in Germany, competing in Euro 2008 qualifying as part of an Oranje squad that would go on to play some of the most breathtaking football of that tournament in Austria and Switzerland, with van Nistelrooy bringing his trademark predatory brilliance to a national team that was building towards one of the most exciting periods in Dutch international football since the days of Cruyff. A named and numbered van Nistelrooy Netherlands shirt in this condition is a wonderfully collectible piece of Dutch football memorabilia bearing the name of one of the purest and most statistically devastating goalscorers the European game has produced in the modern era. A one of one original — when it's gone, it's gone forever.
