Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has seen a match-worn shirt from his memorable hat-trick against Ipswich Town sell for nearly KSh4 million at auction.
The signed shirt reportedly attracted a winning bid of £22,549, equivalent to approximately KSh3.9 million, highlighting the growing value of football memorabilia linked to high-profile moments.
Fernandes produced a standout performance against Ipswich, scoring three goals as Manchester United secured a 5–2 victory. His hat-trick marked a memorable individual display and added to the significance of the shirt later offered to collectors.
The item was described as a signed, match-worn Manchester United shirt, making it particularly attractive to fans and football memorabilia collectors. Match-worn items connected to significant performances often command substantially higher prices than ordinary replica jerseys because of their direct connection to a specific match and player.
Fernandes, who serves as Manchester United captain, has established himself as one of the club's key attacking players since joining the team. His performances and leadership have also made memorabilia associated with him highly sought after among supporters.
The auction price of £22,549 translates to nearly KSh4 million depending on the prevailing exchange rate, placing the shirt among the more valuable pieces of Fernandes-related football memorabilia.
The sale demonstrates how iconic football moments can extend beyond the pitch, with shirts, boots and other match-worn items becoming valuable collector's pieces.
For Fernandes fans, the shirt now represents more than just a piece of Manchester United merchandise—it is a physical reminder of the match in which the Portuguese midfielder scored three times.
