Being a Liverpool fan is special. Growing up with legendary players such as John Barnes, Ian Rush, Steven Gerrard and the wonder of Istanbul in 2005 nurtured my love for the club. In recent years, under the guidance of Jürgen Klopp and Virgil van Dijk, The Reds have soared to new heights with the Champions League in 2019 as their latest mark of dominance in Europe. I will also never forget the introduction of Georginio Wijnaldum at half-time and the corner taken by Trent Alexander-Arnold against Barcelona in the semi-final that year.
In the years between the Champions League wins of 2005 and 2019, the club had its ups and downs, but recent years have shown Liverpool is one of the best clubs in the world. There is a sound policy of buying cornerstone players such as Mohamed Salah and combining them with new home-grown stars. We’re especially excited about Rio Ngumoha, who is increasing his flashes of brilliance each time he is on the pitch.
For Liverpool fans, owning a piece of history and showcasing it on your wall is important. It ties your experience to a certain era, season, player or match that is dear to you. Maybe you visited it with your father or son, had an unforgettable match at home such as the one vs. Barcelona or just are a proud Red showing off your allegiance. It is important for that connection to be genuine.
To provide for the best connections, there are three important things you should be aware of when looking for Liverpool signed football shirts. First, there are different kinds of shirts and each have their own quality. From cheap replica to fanshop stadium to even authentic player versions, you need to be sure the shirt matches the season and is authentic. A signature on an unofficial shirt is less meaningful to collectors. As a true Liverpool fan you want your shirts to be authentic.
Second, not all signatures are created equal. Although you can buy your Virgil shirt even signed in the Liverpool shop, the signature is not his full one. For instance, Virgil signs “V4” when he does it fast, but has a much nicer signature when taking the time to do this. Be sure you get their best signature and have proof of the signing. Always look to have exact video proof where you can see the signing on the shirt with your signature on it.
Finally, have your shirt authenticated. There are many authenticators out there providing a certificate of authenticity (COA), some sellers even produce their own. Make sure the shirt has a reputable third-party COA, such as one provided by Beckett, which has undergone forensic analysis and provides for the additional Letter of Authenticity.
Have those three features combined and the only thing you will need to do is select your ultimate frame and put your shirt on the wall.
