Fernandinho became one of the leading Brazilian midfielders of his generation, representing both Brazil and Manchester City at the highest level. The 2015 Copa América was one of the major international tournaments of his national-team career.

Combining documented match use, MEARS authentication, established provenance and Getty Images photographic material, this jersey represents a significant piece of Brazilian football memorabilia directly connected to Fernandinho’s appearances for his national team.
