As far as World Cup’s have gone over the last 30 years, none have really come close to Italia’ 90 and it would probably take something extraordinary to do so. 2020 marks the 30th anniversary of Italia 90′ and in true Italian World Cup spirit we have now introduced a selection of football inspired goodies for the summer season. We’ve got both white (home) & blue (third) versions of the England 1990 football shirt as worn by the likes of Paul ‘Gazza’ Gascoigne, Gary Linekar, David Platt, Stuart Pearce, Paul Parker & Peter Beardsley.

The last competition of its kind it brought the world superstars including Paul Gascoigne and Roger Milla, lots of exciting football and a tournament still loved by supporters today!

A unique collection of football shirts amassed by an England star during the Italia 1990 World Cup tournament is being offered for sale for the first time ever. Charles said: “This is the first time a complete and unique set of football shirtsrelating to England’s Italia 1990 tournament have been available to buy. Peter Shilton’s shirt is equally iconic. He gave it away to our vendor in the dressing room after the pain of that penalty shoot-out defeat against West Germany. Wright, whose most recent known football role was as head of club development at Southport, declined to comment when approached via a divorce services business for which he is a director, Fair Result. Even today, 33 years after the event, many people instantly recall an iconic image of Gascoigne wiping away tears, overcome with emotion. It became a defining photo of Italia 1990 symbolising England and Gascoigne’s passion for the game.”Meanwhile, one of Wright’s fellow Italia 90 heroes said the fact the auction was taking place in Derbyshire pointed to the defender, who spent four years at Derby and is said to retain strong links to the area. Wright played no part in the game but Townsend told Telegraph Sport that, to the best of his recollection, he had given his shirt to his ex-Southampton team-mate afterwards. Of the Shilton shirt, Hanson said the goalkeeper “gave it away to our vendor in the dressing room after the pain of that penalty shoot-out defeat against West Germany”.
