The 1997/98 season is one of the most glorious in Real Madrid's history: the Seventh Champions League, won in Amsterdam against Juventus with a goal by Predrag Mijatović in the 66th minute. Fabio Capello managed a team built to win in Europe, with Hierro as captain, Raúl as the offensive reference, and a defense that combined experience and speed. In that context, Roberto Carlos was much more than a left-back: he was a force of nature. The Brazilian, in his second season at Madrid, had cemented his status as the best full-back in the world following his legendary free-kick goal against France at the 1997 Tournoi de France. Fast, overflowing with skill, and possessing a devastating shot, the white team's number 3 was one of the most feared players on the planet.
The garment is the 1997/98 home shirt, manufactured by Kelme—the Valencian brand that outfitted Real Madrid during that period. Classic white with the club crest embroidered on the chest with purple details and the specific design features of Kelme from that era. On the back is the number 3 with the ROBERTO CARLOS name set, making it a top-tier collector's item: an iconic player, a historic season, and a manufacturer that no longer dresses the club. Size M, with the fit of the era. A shirt with three layers of value: sporting, historical, and collectible.
