Manchester United 2000-02 Home Retro Jersey - Keane #16

Manufactured by Umbro, this shirt was part of their final season as the club's kit supplier before Nike took over in August 2002. Featuring the classic all-red body with subtle white piping and a simple V-neck collar, the shirt prominently displays the Vodafone sponsor logo, which had taken over from Sharp at the beginning of the 2000-01 season. This jersey was worn as United fought hard to retain their dominance in the Premier League, eventually finishing third. The shirt bears the number of Roy Keane, a player whose name is synonymous with leadership, fierce determination, and an unwavering will to win. While previous number 16 wearers often rotated, by this point, the number had become unequivocally linked to Keane. He dictated play from central midfield, breaking up attacks and driving the team forward with a mix of aggression and skill. This jersey captures the essence of a captain who set the standard for every player around him.
