Sevilla FC Third Shirt 2013/14 – Stéphane M'Bia – No.22 – Player Issued Long Sleeves – Warrior – Liga BBVA / UEFA Europa League

Stéphane M'Bia's Player Issued Jersey: Sevilla's Number 22 in the 2013/14 Season — Year of the Third UEL

The official third jersey of Sevilla FC for the 2013/2014 season in its Player Issued version — in the very rare long-sleeved variant — is an authentic artifact of the highest historical and collector's value, directly linked to the most exciting season in the Andalusian club's recent European history. The yellow jersey with black sleeves and a sublimated tribal pattern is produced by Warrior Sports — the brand that served as Sevilla's technical supplier since 2013 — and features the technical characteristics exclusively reserved for team supply: technical fabric with recycled S.Café® anti-odor fiber, personalization with the player's number and surname in the brand's characteristic graffiti style, a white V-neck with a red checkered inner tape bearing the inscription "Sevilla Fútbol Club / Warrior". The Sevilla crest is applied in a simplified circular black version. The LFP (Liga de Fútbol Profesional) — Liga BBVA — patch is sewn on the left sleeve, while the back features the number 22 and the personalization "MBIA.E" in a bold Warrior-style font. The size is XL (USA/EUR/GB), with corresponding sizes for Asian and Japanese markets. The long-sleeved version — reserved only for team supply in adverse weather conditions — was never commercially released and represents one of the rarest pieces in the Sevilla collecting universe of the Warrior era.

The Player: Stéphane M'Bia

Stéphane M'Bia Etoundi (Yaoundé, May 20, 1986) is one of the most complete Cameroonian defensive midfielders of his generation, trained at the same Kadji Sports Academy in Douala that produced Samuel Eto'o and Carlos Kameni. Developed at Rennes, he established himself as a high-level central defender at Olympique Marseille — where he won the 2009/10 Ligue 1 — before moving to Queens Park Rangers in the Premier League in 2012. On August 26, 2013, he arrived at Sevilla on loan, becoming one of the absolute protagonists of a historic season. In the UEFA Europa League semi-final against Valencia, he scored the decisive away goal in the 94th minute that qualified Sevilla for the final. In the final itself in Turin against Benfica, which ended 0-0, he converted his penalty in the penalty shootout that delivered Sevilla their third UEL in eight years. He remained permanently for the 2014/15 season, also winning the fourth UEL with the Sevillian club. This number 22 jersey is a testament to one of the most decisive contributions in Sevilla FC's European history.

What is a Player Issued jersey?

A Player Issued jersey is a kit prepared specifically for a certain player but not necessarily worn in an official match. It differs from the commercial version by 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. The long-sleeved version — like this example — is never available to the public and represents an even rarer piece in the seasonal supply. For collectors, it represents an authentic piece of the highest historical and commercial value, often impossible to find on the market years after its production.
