Shirt of England ‘legend’ sold for £11k at Wiltshire auction

A shirt worn by Roger Hunt during England’s historic 1966 World Cup campaign has sold for £11,000 at auction.

The former Liverpool striker wore the long-sleeved white shirt against France in a group game on 20 July 1966, when he scored both goals in a 2-0 win.

Hunt was part of the team that later lifted the World Cup when England beat West Germany 4-2 at Wembley Stadium.

Auctioneer Andrew Aldridge said: “As a lover of football, selling this is a great honour. As a Wiltshire company, Hunt had a strong connection to this town, it’s a really cool thing.”
