Description

Official Brazilian National Football Team jersey worn by striker Ronaldo during a match in the Atlanta 1996 Summer Olympics. The Umbro jersey, size medium, bears the Brazilian Football Confederation logo to the left chest, and the number “18” is featured on the front and back, which also bears the rare presence of the surname, “Ronaldinho”; he played with that name because center back Ronaldo Guiaro, two years his senior, was one of his teammates. In fine condition, with expected wear from use.

Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Marcos Moura Teixeira, a former technical coordinator for the Brazilian National Soccer Team, who affirms that the shirt derives from his personal collection. Known as El Fenomeno, Ronaldo won the FIFA World Player of the Year in 1996, 1997, and 2002, the Ballon d'Or in 1997 and 2002, and the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year in 1998. Ronaldo also won a bronze medal in the 1996 Summer Olympics.
