Have you ever thought about getting a match-worn shirt of your favorite footballer? In the past, the best chance to get them was to wait for a auction of a kit. Now Shirtum has launched a new initiative for the fight against COVID-19 that gives anybody the chance to get the match-worn kit of their favorite player.
'Shirtum' - Buy Raffle Tickets For Chance Of Getting Player Matchworn Kit
The initiative by Shirtum, known as #TheBiggestGame, sees sporting icons donate a match-worn jersey to be raffled off to fans. The player then chooses a hospital where the funds collected for his jersey are donated to.

Fans can purchase a ticket (€5) which will be represented by a digital token with the image of the jersey. The more tokens the fan has the better chance they will have of winning their selected shirt. One token costs 5 Euro.
The Shirtum charity initiative has been joined by many high-profile footballers such as Andres Iniesta, Virgil Van Dijk, Ivan Rakitic and Javier Saviola.
In example, Virgil Van Dijk donated the away shirt he wore in the 2017/18 Champions League Semifinal (2nd. leg) vs AS Roma, while Ciro Immobile is giving away the kit he wore against Inter Milan in February this year.

The Adidas FC Noah 26-27 home shirt features the club's traditional black and white colors, but introduces a highly bespoke graphic design on the front. This bold central element even prompted questions from fans online about whether it was a main sponsor logo or an integrated pattern.

This natural monument, formed by cooling volcanic lava, symbolizes the harmony of nature.

Ahead of the 2026 World Cup Final at MetLife Stadium, Adidas launched a massive promotional stunt in New York City. The brand sent a giant replica of the FIFA World Cup Trophy alongside an enormous version of the Adidas Trionda Final match ball floating down the Hudson River.
The large inflatables caught the attention of fans and locals as they navigated the waterways near the host city.
