I wanna child's Brazil football top

Ok, so my son seems to be collecting every football top that is going and as a reward he managed to get my agreement to buy him a Brazil top - ideally with no.10 Ronaldinho on the back (sorry if info is incorrect as no idea about football).

Now husband has said not to get a replica - well I can't find any real or replica - attention span on this subject is very short so maybe I didn't try too hard?. So need your help please.... require a childs size, age 7-8.

I am expecting it to cost around £50 which is just horrendous..but my son knows how to get something..pick on his Mum who hasn't a clue about how much these things cost but agrees anyway....and then finds out the truth.

Any ideas please?

    Well done!

    Husband said ...'but it's not a football shirt'. I said...'and?, it has everything he wants'

    Thank you, that's a great find and very quick...gives you an idea on how short my attention span is when it comes to footie!

    I'm a bit confused, are you sure your husband didn't say get a Replica if he is after a Football shirt, or does he mean just brazil top in football type material? I will have a quick look for a replica

    No, I think you are right - how do you get a real shirt - surely that is what the players are wearing?

    Wow, must contact you next time I am after something - how do you find all these places?

    They have them in JJB and you can get the names and numbers on the back for a little extra.

    EDIT : When you say your husband has said not to get a replica, does he mean a fake, because a replica football shirt is all you are going to be able to get.

    Having had a discussion with him, he has said it is a replica he is after and he meant he didn't want a fake - having looked on eBay at the Thai sellers for example...mmm

    I wouldn't buy one from e-Bay, even from a UK seller, because you just don't know what you will get as the fakes look real until you receive them :rolleyes: :D
