These sales figures are beyond all expectations; on the first sales day for the new home jersey for season 2015/16, 7500 (!) fans made sure they have their kit to wear to the stadium.

Marketing Director Carsten Cramer confirmed this and sent a big thank-you to everyone who has bought the jersey: “we did not expect to have such an incredible start to the sale of the jersey. This is beyond our expectations.”

On Tuesday evening half an hour before the start of the sale, 300 BVB fans had already gathered at the FanWelt and were waiting for the doors to open for the midnight sale. Several hundred people made the most of this opportunity to make sure they got the new jersey during this special sale.

The price for the new home jersey, second jersey and the goalkeeper’s jersey is 79.95 Euros. The black away kit will not change from last season and is still available for 74.95 Euros. The player lettering and numbers are available for 10 Euros, the same as in the last seasons. (br)
