It is anticipated that six jerseys worn by Lionel Messi during Argentina’s momentous victory at the 2022 World Cup will set new records at auction.
The assortment, which features the jersey he donned during the first portion of the championship game, is expected to become the most prized collection of sports memorabilia.
Sotheby’s predicts that the collection will sell for over £7.9 million ($10 million) and a portion of the money earned from the sale will go towards a charity project backed by the Leo Messi Foundation. This project aims to assist children who are struggling with uncommon illnesses.
In 2022, Michael Jordan’s 1998 NBA Finals jersey was sold for $10.1 million (£8 million), setting a new world record for sports memorabilia.
