Nike outfitted Chelsea in this 2022-2023 away football shirt, one of the most chaotic in the club's recent history: the team had just been acquired by the consortium led by Todd Boehly following the forced exit of Roman Abramovich, and the new American ownership embarked on a historic spending spree, over 600 million euros in a single season, with a disappointing result on the pitch: three different managers, total inconsistency, and an unprecedented twelfth-place Premier League finish for a club with that budget. Graham Potter arrived, it didn't work out, and Frank Lampard returned on an interim basis to close out the campaign, in a year of failed experiments with an oversized squad and no clear identity. The garment features Nike's characteristic design for Chelsea at that time, it has no nameset, is size XL, and is a unique piece in stock: a shirt from a year to forget at Stamford Bridge, but one that is already part of the club's history.
