A Brazil football shirt prepared for legendary player Pele ahead of his last international is estimated to sell for up to £30,000 at auction.
According to the BBC, The shirt was made for football legend Pele’s last international game but he did not wear it in the match
It was one of two number 10 jerseys made for Brazil’s game in 1971 against Yugoslavia, Hansons Auctioneers said.
Pele did not wear it in the match and gave it to the team’s masseur instead.
The shirt was later purchased by a restaurant manager in Shropshire who said he hoped it would end up in a football museum.
The 33-year-old seller, who did not want to reveal his identity, said he bought it from a private collector in 2020.
