Diego Maradona Bayern Munich Rare Home Shirt 2000 Lothar Matthäus Testimonial XL

Description: “Diego Maradona is a true football legend. During his illustrious career, he wore the shirts of Barcelona, Napoli and the Argentina national team. But did you know that Maradona once stepped onto the pitch wearing the Bayern Munich jersey and the captain's armband? In 2000, German football legend Lothar Matthäus marked his retirement from football with a friendly farewell game between Bayern Munich and Germany legends. Diego captained the Bayern side on that day. The game ended 1-1. Maradona called Matthäus his main rival: the two legends led their teams to the World Cup finals in 1986 and 1990. After the 1986 World Cup final, Diego and Lothar swapped jerseys. When Maradona died, Matthäus donated the great Argentine's jersey to the museum and refused to sell it at auction. In 2021, the German football legend shared his memories of Diego with the Daily Mail: "Diego was the greatest player of my time. Nobody in the world could do what he did with a ball. "We played in each other's farewell games, but only played for the same team once - in Michel Platini's farewell game at Sevilla in 1988. Then he set up my goal. Afterwards, we spent an unforgettable evening with a beer. Diego is the God of Argentina." An amazing story of friendship and mutual respect!” Shirt is a modern retro reproduction and not from ‘00 Size XL - BNWT
