Xavi Simons buys classic 1993 Flamengo shirt in England | OneFootball

Xavi Simons was seen this week buying a classic 1993 Flamengo shirt at Classic Football Shirts in England, according to Globo.com.

The attacking midfielder was photographed holding the number seven model worn by Renato Gaúcho during that season.

The kit featured Lubrax as main sponsor and Umbro as manufacturer. The store’s post caught the eye of Flamengo fans, who joked about his choice and even suggested a move to the club.

A Barcelona academy graduate, Xavi Simons also had spells with PSG and PSV before rising to prominence in European football. He was later signed by RB Leipzig, then arrived at Tottenham.

He is currently recovering from a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The injury ruled Xavi Simons out of the World Cup.
