GC Zürich 1997-98 home shirt title-winning season - KUBI #11 - 7/10 - [XL]

    Our own studio photos of the original - never a catalogue image

    Description

    This home shirt of Grasshopper Zurich from the 1997-98 title-winning season has the name KUBI on the back with the number 11 - Kubilay Türkyilmaz, who scored 63 goals in 99 games for GC before making the move to Galatasaray and later Bologna. In that season, with 23 goals, he was the defining striker of a team that won the Nationalliga A with ease. As a fan version, the shirt shows the simple blue and white of those years and brings you a piece of one of the clearest title-winning seasons in the club's history. In size XL and graded 7/10, it shows visible signs of wear, as you would expect from a collector's item over 25 years old. Provenance: This shirt comes from the collection of a long-time Swiss collector who works with retroshirts.ch. His collection is one of the most extensive in Switzerland, built up through personal contacts in the football world and the collector scene - both nationally and internationally.

      Season 1997-98🏆 National League A champions

      The story behind the shirt

      Grasshopper Zurich dominated the 1997-98 season and confidently claimed the Nationalliga A championship with 57 points from 36 games. Kubilay Türkyilmaz was the driving force in attack with 23 goals, supported by Viorel Moldovan (17 goals) and Nestor Subiat (13 goals). Under coach Christian Gross until November and then Rolf Fringer, the club also reached the second round of UEFA Cup qualification as well as the round of 16 of the Swiss Cup. A shirt from this season represents one of the clearest title wins in the club's history.

      Frequently asked questions

      Icon for reviewWhat condition are the shirts in?

      Honest condition details, transparent 1-10 grading and high-resolution original photos - so you see exactly what you get.

      • Our vintage treasures have a history - and sometimes the odd battle scar.
      • We list every flaw plainly and give a clear score from 1 (to love anyway) to 10 (fresh out of the time machine). How we grade is explained in detail on our condition page.
      • We take the photos ourselves in the studio, high-resolution and without Photoshop touch-ups - you can see every seam, every thread and every heroically earned stain.
      Icon for verifiedIs the shirt genuine?

      Yes. We sell verified originals only - no fakes. We check every shirt by hand before it goes on sale: MPN (where available), material and feel, seams, details.

      Icon for barcodeHow does the sizing run?

      Vintage shirts vary a lot depending on era and manufacturer - do not rely on the label alone. On every product page you find the chest width in cm (measured flat). Best compare it with a shirt that fits you well.

      Icon for shopping_bagCan I pick up / try on in store?

      Of course - drop by our store in Zurich and take a look at the shirts before buying (trying on included). Opening hours and address are here on the store page. What you see in the online shop is also in the store. During June/July some shirts are also at our pop-up in Zurich main station. Every shirt shows which location it is at.

      Icon for secureHow do I care for my vintage shirt?

      So your shirt lasts - the essentials in short:

      • Wash inside out, zips closed, 30 °C gentle cycle, detergent for sportswear.
      • Never tumble dry - air dry. Do not iron (at most carefully with steam).
      • Soak stains beforehand (mild soap), never chlorine bleach.
      • Old shirts with brittle print/flock: as rarely as possible, and by hand only.

      The full guide is here: Shirt care.
