A 41-year-old Manchester man says he is selling prized, signed football shirts belonging to Pele and David Beckham to help pay for a final family holiday. According to reports, the man is living with a serious illness and plans to use the money raised to take his wife and three daughters on what he describes as a trip of a lifetime, including a Disney visit.
The collection features match-worn or signed shirts that he built over more than two decades, reflecting his long-term support for football. One outlet reports the shirts are expected to raise around £7,000. Another describes the planned sale as part of an effort to give his children one last “magical” holiday.
Both accounts focus on the same core details: his health situation, the sale of the signed Pele and Beckham items, and the intended use of proceeds for a family trip with his wife and daughters. Neither source provides additional medical specifics beyond his illness, and both frame the sale as a personal decision to create a last shared experience.
