Official Nike Celtic home player issue football shirt from the 2005/06 season. Complete with Nakamura #25 on the back of the shirt in official lettering, and Champions League star ball on the sleeve.

This is Nike's 'player issue' version of the jersey, manufactured for players. It features a more breathable mesh material on the side panels. There is also a blank panel on the rear to display player numbers more visibly.

Although this jersey was also used in Celtic's European campaign the following season (2006/07), the club introduced a new 'European' lettering for it which did not feature the SPL logo.

Condition of this original football jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. Light wear. Small faint dot mark near lower hem (see photos).

Nakamura expressed interest in playing in Spain and media reports linked him to La Liga sides Atlético Madrid and Deportivo as well as Bundesliga clubs Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Mönchengladbach in the summer of 2005. Other European clubs including Leeds United, Lazio, and Parma reportedly had also expressed interest during Nakamura's time at Reggina, but Nakamura ultimately chose to join Scottish Premier League runners-up Celtic.

New manager Gordon Strachan became interested in acquiring Nakamura due to his national team appearances in the 2005 Confederations Cup, in particular for his performance against Brazil in which Nakamura scored a goal and helped Japan to a 2–2 draw. The deal with Celtic was completed on 29 July 2005 for a reported transfer fee of £2.5 million, although Strachan has claimed the actual fee was far lower.
