Chelsea 2021/22 Pre-Match Shirt

The Chelsea 2021/22 pre-match shirt is a standout piece from the season in which the club competed at the highest level in both English and European football. Made by Nike, the shirt uses a striking blue, black and yellow design with an abstract graphic pattern across the body. The Chelsea crest sits on the chest alongside the Nike Swoosh, while the Three sponsor is placed prominently on the front. Unlike the traditional match shirt, the pre-match design gives Nike much more freedom to experiment with colours and graphics, making this a particularly distinctive Chelsea piece.

The shirt was worn around the 2021/22 campaign, a season that began with Chelsea as reigning European champions after their Champions League victory over Manchester City in May 2021. Thomas Tuchel's team also competed in the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Champions League during a demanding season. Players including Mason Mount, N'Golo Kanté, Reece James, Jorginho and Romelu Lukaku were part of the squad, while Chelsea ultimately finished third in the Premier League.

This original Nike Chelsea pre-match shirt has style code DQ0547-422 and is available in size Large. The shirt is in Mint condition, meaning it shows no signs of previous use. Its unusual graphic design makes it a good alternative to the more familiar Chelsea home and away shirts from the same period. For collectors of modern Nike football shirts or Chelsea memorabilia, it captures the visual style of the club during one of the most competitive periods of the 2020s.
