Livorno Away Jersey 2006/07 – Samuel Kuffour – No. 14 – Player Issued – Legea – Serie A

The Livorno 2006/07 Player Issued shirt with Samuel Kuffour's name: a rare relic of African football in Italy

The AS Livorno Calcio away shirt for the 2006/2007 season in Player Issued version is a rare relic in the panorama of Italian football collecting. Made by Legea — Livorno's technical sponsor in that season — it features a long-sleeved white design with red inserts on the shoulders, decorative red stitching, and the characteristic watermark graphic of Livorno's Medici fortress on the front, an explicit reference to the history and identity of the Labronica city. The sponsor Gruppo Carige Banca e Assicurazione appears in large red format on the chest, framed by the official AS Livorno Calcio 1915 crest. The official Lega Calcio Serie A TIM patch is sewn on the left sleeve, documenting the Tuscan club's participation in the Italian top league. The internal label bears the words "A.S. Livorno Calcio — Authentic Licensed Product — Legea" with size XL. The back is personalized with the name KUFFOUR and the number 14 in red. Excellent condition: perfectly intact white fabric, vivid colors, precise stitching, no alterations. An extraordinarily rare piece that unites the history of Livorno in Serie A with the international career of one of the strongest African defenders in the history of world football.

The player: Samuel Osei Kuffour

Samuel Osei Kuffour (Kumasi, Ghana, September 3, 1976) is universally recognized as one of the greatest African defenders in the history of world football. After starting with Bayern Munich — with whom he played eleven seasons as an absolute protagonist, winning six Bundesliga titles, three German Cups, a Champions League in 2001, and an Intercontinental Cup — he brought his experience to Italy with Roma and Livorno. The 2006/07 season with Livorno represented his last great adventure in the Italian Serie A, with 18 appearances in the top league. His figure entered the history of African football also for his participation in the 2006 World Cup in Germany with the Ghanaian national team, in one of Ghana's first historic qualifications for a World Cup final phase. In 2007, the Confederation of African Football included him among the 30 best African footballers of all time. His number 14 shirt with Livorno is an authentic relic of a champion who wrote pages of history in European and African football.

What is a Player Issued shirt?

A Player Issued shirt is a uniform prepared specifically for a specific 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, player's name and number applied with match-grade materials, exclusive technical cut and fabrics reserved for team supply, internal details that do not appear in store versions. It is hierarchically superior to the commercially sold version and inferior only to the Match Worn. For collectors, it represents an authentic piece of extremely high historical and commercial value, often impossible to find on the market years after its preparation.
