No. 26

Just received it today. Absolutely love it because most of the things printed on this shirt will probably won't be around next season. The main sponsor AIG will not renew their contract due to financial difficulties. The writing around the Manchester United logo is to commemorate the 40th anniversary of becoming the first English team to win the European Cup by beating Benfica by four goals to one. And they won it by playing in all blue. The middle logo of FIFA World Champions 2008 and sleeve logo of European Champions 07/8 will be replaced by FIFA World Champions 2009 and European Champions 08/09 respectively. So this is truly one unique shirt.
