Palermo Special football shirt 2014 - 2015

More examples of this shirt

• 

  Special home shirt worn against Sassuolo for the 2014-15 Serie A season. The shirt uses the same template of the regular home shirt, however the printing uses fans' pictures to fill the numbers, rather than solid black.

  Shirt #12 was assigned to Costa Rican defender Giancarlo González upon his arrival and upon his own request. González was signed after the World Cup after half a season with MLS outfit Columbus Crew where he was becoming a fan favorite--Pipo's tenure with the Crew 96 was cut short due to his valuable performance during Costa Rica's run on the World Cup, attracting attention from top European clubs. González then returned to European football after his tenure on Vålerenga Fotball from mid-2012 (after being signed from home club Liga Deportiva Alajuelense) to early 2014, where he decided to sign for the Crew 96 in order for him to be easily available for then-Costa Rica boss Jorge Luis Pinto for international duty. Pipo rightfully earned his place in the World Cup finals due to his quality performances on the Qualifiers and with his clubs. Upon signing with Palermo, González debuted on October against Cesena, scoring the winning goal and becoming a regular on the starting eleven.

  The above example was match-worn during the Sassuolo match and was obtained from González afterwards.
