Our First Official Messi Signing Of 2023!

For the first time since he and his Argentina compatriots won the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, Lionel Messi met with our team to put pen to product at a private and exclusive signing session in Paris.

The official signing took place on January 30th and presented our team with the first opportunity of 2023 to get highly sought-after Argentina shirts signed by the man who led his nation to its third world title.

Messi was on inspired form throughout the tournament in November and December, scoring a whopping seven goals – including a brace in the Final – and earning the adidas Golden Ball as the competition’s best player.

We at Icons watched with immense pride as Messi then lifted the iconic trophy at the Lusail Stadium in Doha following a pulsating Final that will live long in the memory.

Icons Shop Ltd CEO Dan Jamieson, who was at the Final in Qatar to see Messi’s Argentina defeat France, said: “They say when you bet on a game the result means more.

“We went all-in on Leo a long time ago and he pulled off the big one. After all the twists and turns my heart hurt. Even the crowd around us got involved as they wondered why England fans were supporting Argentina so much!”

It’s no wonder that in the ensuing hours, days and weeks we received an overwhelming influx of orders for exclusive Official Messi Signed Merchandise and Official FIFA World Cup Memorabilia from all over the world.

At an undisclosed location in Paris, Messi signed Argentina shirts both home and away, personal dedications, 2022 FIFA World Cup footballs, Adidas boots, artwork and more amazing items for his many adoring fans.

Icons have been working with Messi since the age of 17 and in turn have developed a wonderful relationship with the world’s greatest player. Icons is the only source of authentic Official Messi Signed Merchandise.

Every single piece of Official Messi Signed Merchandise comes with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) that shows Messi signing one of the items at the session, as well as the date and location of the signing. The COA is created under license by Icons.com.

Icons Signs With FC Barcelona Star Raphinha!

On January 27th, Icons were excited to add a new name to our ever-growing list of superstar footballers when, at an undisclosed location in Barcelona, Raphinha met our team for a private signing session!

The tricky winger was a sensation in the Premier League for Leeds United before his move to FC Barcelona in July 2022 where he continues to wow fans with his cannot-be-stopped playing style.

Raphinha signs for Icons.com, Barcelona, Spain, 27th January 2023.

The mercurial talent represented Brazil at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar having burst on to the European football scene with a string of impressive performances on the biggest stages.

Raphinha signed FC Barcelona shirts and photos, as well as Brazil and Leeds United items, plus Adidas boots and more – all of which are available in a wide range of stunning presentation and framing options.

Each and every item of Raphinha signed memorabilia from Icons.com comes with an official Certificate of Authenticity, which serves as your proof that the Brazilian’s signature is 100% authentic and was genuinely signed by the man himself during this private signing session, organised and conducted by our dedicated signing team.
