Match Shirt • Club • Parma • 1994 • Umbro • Home • #6 • Fernando Couto • Match Worn

Parma home shirt, 1994/95, match-worn by Fernando Couto (No. 6).
White Umbro long sleeve with Parmalat in blue flock across the chest and No. 6 in light flock to the back.

Collector Note: It is easy to tell 1994 Parma match shirts because the Umbro logo is stitched onto the shirt rather than in flock.

Fresh from Porto, Couto slotted at left centre-back, aggressive in the duel and authoritative in the air. His front-foot running compressed space for Parma’s midfield and he brought a leader’s edge in European ties—anticipation, body positioning, and the willingness to carry into midfield to break a press. This was the year Italian audiences took note the rugged elegance that later carried him to Barcelona.
