Lecce Away Shirt 2000/01 – Emiliano Biliotti – N.11 – Player Issued – Asics – Serie A

Emiliano Biliotti's Player Issued jersey: a rare Lecce collectible

A rare Player Issued US Lecce jersey from the early 2000s, in a long-sleeved Away version, personalized with the name and number 11 of striker Emiliano Biliotti. Made by technical sponsor Asics, it features an elegant navy blue background with the distinctive yellow and red polo collar, red and yellow diamond inserts on the sides, and red cuffs. The commercial sponsor banca121, Servizio Banca Telematica di Banca del Salento, stands out on the front, while the official Lega Calcio patch of the time is on the sleeve, and the inscription U.S. LECCE is on the back of the collar. The jersey features the finishes and technical details typical of team-issued kits, distinct from the commercial versions intended for fans. An XL-sized example preserved in excellent condition, an authentic testament to a fascinating and now distant era of Salento football in Serie A.

The player: Emiliano Biliotti

Emiliano Biliotti (Grosseto, September 30, 1974) is a former Italian striker who spent an important part of his career with the yellow and red colors of Lecce, wearing their jersey from 1999 to 2002. Having come up through the Grosseto youth system, he took his first steps with Siena and SPAL in Serie C1, building a long career rich in experiences through the Italian professional championships. With Lecce, he participated in the seasons between Serie A and Serie B, a period that Salento fans remember with great affection. During his career, he also wore the jerseys of other clubs, including Foggia, leaving his mark of dedication and professionalism everywhere. This jersey therefore represents an authentic fragment of that season and of genuine and passionate provincial football.

What is a Player Issued jersey?

A Player Issued jersey is a uniform prepared specifically for a certain player but not necessarily used in an official match. It differs from the commercial version by a series of precise technical characteristics: professional finishes, match materials and cut, player customization, and details reserved for team kits. 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 value, especially when linked to seasons and jerseys that are now unobtainable, like this one.
