Italy National Team Away Shirt 2019 – Andrea Belotti – No.9 – Player Issued – Puma – Italy vs Armenia 18.11.2019 – UEFA Euro 2020 Qualifiers

A Player Issued jersey is a kit prepared specifically for a given player but not necessarily worn in an official match. It differs from the commercial version due to a series of precise technical characteristics: professional finishes, personalization with the player's name and number, match-grade cut and materials, exclusive technical details reserved for team supply. In this case, the presence of the match detail printed on the chest — with the date and place of the match — together with the official UEFA Euro 2020, UEFA Respect patches, and heart symbol, represent elements of exceptional authenticity that link the piece to a single historic match. For collectors, it represents an authentic piece of extremely high historical and commercial value, often impossible to find on the market years after its production.Belotti's Player Issued jersey: the night of the 9-1 at Barbera, Italy closes the perfect group stage

The Italian National Team's away jersey for the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers in Player Issued version carries one of the most memorable moments in Italian football of recent decades. The match detail printed on the chest certifies the Italy–Armenia match on November 18, 2019, played at the Renzo Barbera Stadium in Palermo on the last day of Group J. A legendary evening: Italy crushed Armenia 9-1, closing the qualifying group with ten wins out of ten, a result never before achieved in the history of the National Team. The jersey, prepared for Andrea Belotti — called up by Roberto Mancini for that final group stage match — features the most advanced Puma version compared to previous kits of the same season: the sophisticated jacquard pattern with geometric and floral tone-on-tone decorations, the new golden FIGC crest with four stars, and an exceptional set of patches for a qualifying match. The official UEFA Euro 2020 logo appears on the left sleeve, and the UEFA Respect patches and heart symbol are on the right. The internal label reads Made in Vietnam, size XL. A piece that meticulously documents an evening that will forever be etched in the history of the Italian National Team.

The player: Andrea Belotti

Andrea Belotti (Calcinate, December 20, 1993) is one of the most beloved and representative Italian strikers of his generation. Nicknamed Il Gallo (The Rooster), he has tied the heart of his career to Torino FC, where he was captain and leader for over a decade, with more than 100 goals scored in Serie A in the Granata jersey. With the national team, he experienced the extraordinary journey that led Italy to victory in UEFA Euro 2020, contributing with decisive goals and performances to the qualifiers — including the brace in the first leg against Armenia itself, in Yerevan on September 5, 2019, which unlocked the path in Group J. A reference center-forward in the Mancini era, endowed with physical power and a sense of goal, Belotti was one of the symbols of that Azzurri generation. The match on November 18, 2019, in Palermo, in which Italy made history with the perfect group stage, represents one of the brightest chapters of that journey. His jersey prepared for that evening is a relic that tells a unique page in the history of Italian football.
