The Aston Villa 2001/02 Home Football Shirt by Diadora. Men’s size Small. 100% authentic with official Paul Merson #10 printing on the back. Good condition overall, with a few bobbles from general wear.
 
This home shirt was worn during a season of transition at Villa Park. The team finished 8th in the Premier League and exited the FA Cup in the third round, losing 3–2 against Manchester United. It was also the year John Gregory resigned in January after four years in charge, with Graham Taylor returning as manager.
 
On the European stage, Villa lifted the Intertoto Cup, beating FC Basel 5–2 on aggregate in the final. Their run in the UEFA Cup was short-lived, however, going out on away goals to NK Varteks in the first round.
 
Featuring the classic claret and blue design with white collar trim, Diadora branding, and Rover sponsor, this is a proper player-printed shirt tied to Paul Merson’s influential spell in the early 2000s. A strong piece for collectors and Villa fans alike.
 
100% Authentic.
