Pakistani star pacer receives a personalised No. 10 jersey during his visit to legendary football stadium

Shaheen Shah Afridi, Pakistan’s premier pace bowler, recently visited Old Trafford, the iconic home of Manchester United, while enjoying a break in the United Kingdom after a gruelling cricket season.

Afridi, who has recently faced a demanding schedule on the field, is using this time to recharge and unwind.

During his stay, Afridi had the opportunity to explore the rich history and legendary status of Old Trafford. What seemed like an impromptu visit turned out to be a thoughtfully arranged event by the football club.

At Old Trafford, Afridi was warmly welcomed and seen in the dugout of the famous stadium, where he posed with a personalised Manchester United jersey.

The jersey, bearing his name “Afridi” and the legendary No. 10—worn by football greats like David Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Wayne Rooney—emphasised the special nature of the visit.

Manchester United recently shared photos of Afridi on their social media platform, showing him exploring the stadium while wearing the team’s kit. The club captioned the image with “The eagle has landed,” accompanied by an eagle emoji.

This exclusive gesture highlighted Manchester United’s appreciation for the cricket star and made the occasion memorable for both Afridi and his fans.
