“We came to buy a special Champions League jersey for our granddaughter who is 16 today: it will be her Christmas present! We were afraid there wouldn’t be any more next week. » This retired couple is taking advantage of Black Friday to advance their gifts to the Kergaradec industrial zone, on the edge of Brest (Finistère). It is there, a stone’s throw from one of the biggest Leclercs in France, that the official store of Stade Brestois 29 has been set up. And therefore all the derivative products linked to the Finistère team, which meets for the first time in its history in the Champions League. A first all the more remarkable given that the club with the most modest budget in all of Ligue 1 has had a string of very good results, conceding only one defeat in five matches since the start of the competition.
Good news for customers, on this Friday, November 29, there were still SB29 jerseys in the store stamped on the sleeve with the UEFA (Union of European Football Associations), which organizes the Champions League. As soon as it went on sale at the start of the season, for the “modest” sum of 99 euros, the red and white European version jersey was snapped up and is starting to become rare.
Is there a risk of stock shortages?
Tension is at its peak, as the Christmas holidays approach, on the fan side. Will there be a new draw? The club assured, in October, to “Télégramme”, that there would be enough to sustain the fans. As a reminder, during the first sale, more than 1,000 jerseys were sold.
According to information from “Telegram”, a new draw could be planned before the holidays. Contacted several times, the managers of the club store did not respond to our requests to have an idea of the dates or figures of this possible draw.
