Sampdoria Away Shirt 2019/20 – Alex Ferrari – No. 25 – Player Issued – Joma – Serie A TIM

Alex Ferrari's Player Issued jersey: a Sampdoria relic from the 2019/20 Serie A season

The UC Sampdoria 2019/2020 official away jersey in its Player Issued version is an authentic and visually iconic piece of contemporary Italian football. Made by Joma, the technical sponsor of the Genoa club until 2020, this away kit features a bold and immediately recognizable design: a white base with the characteristic dotted graphic in Sampdoria colors – blue, red, and black – arranged in a fan shape on the lower part and shoulders, paying homage to Sampdoria's distinctive style. The Joma logo is prominent on the left chest, flanked by the club crest, while the inscription "La Maglia Più Bella del Mondo 1946" (The Most Beautiful Jersey in the World 1946) in the backneck of the collar recalls the club's founding year and its legendary motto. The Invent sponsor is prominently displayed on the chest, and the IBSA logo is on the lower back. The official Serie A TIM patch on the left sleeve features the year "1929-2019," a special patch made exclusively for Serie A's 90th anniversary: a collector's detail that precisely dates the jersey to the 2019/2020 season and distinguishes it from any other example. The back is personalized with the name FERRARI and the number 25.

The player: Alex Ferrari

Alex Ferrari (Modena, July 1, 1994) is an Italian central defender who grew up in the Bologna youth sector, a club with which he made his professional debut before building a solid career in Serie A and Serie B. Standing 191 cm tall, left-footed, with good tactical reading and great physical prowess, he is often also employed as a right-back. In the 2019/2020 season, his second in a Sampdoria jersey after arriving from Sampdoria in the summer of 2018, he established himself as a starter in the defense led by Claudio Ranieri — making 12 appearances in Serie A before an injury sidelined him in the second half of the season. With Sampdoria, Ferrari built the longest and most significant chapter of his career, making over 56 Serie A appearances in total with the Genoa club, renewing his contract until 2027. His number 25 jersey is an authentic document of that Sampdoria season, enriched by the commemorative patch for Serie A's 90th anniversary.

What is a Player Issued jersey?

A Player Issued jersey is a kit specifically prepared for a particular 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. It is hierarchically superior to the store version and inferior only to the Match Worn. For collectors, it represents an authentic piece of very high historical and commercial value, often impossible to find on the market some time after its production.
