Umbro Ajax Home 98/99 Kinkladze 11 - 8/10

Description

Umbro Ajax home shirt from the 1998/99 season featuring Kinkladze #11, in very good condition with light wear. Georgi Kinkladze is remembered as one of the most gifted dribblers of his generation, a cult hero at Manchester City who spent a season at Ajax in this period — a short and unusual chapter that makes shirts carrying his name at this club genuinely rare. Add the classic Umbro red and white of the Amsterdam side and this is an unusual combination that most collectors will not have seen before. Graded by hand at our Oslo and Stavanger stores.

His spell in Amsterdam was brief before a move to Derby County. Ajax were rebuilding at the time, a few years on from the 1995 Champions League win, with Morten Olsen managing a squad still producing talent from the club's academy. FAQ Who applied the nameset? The Kinkladze 11 nameset was applied by Thefootballidiots. What does 8/10 condition mean? Very good vintage condition with some signs of wear consistent with age.
