The 2008-09 season was a challenging period for the French national team. They had a disappointing UEFA Euro 2008 campaign, finishing bottom of their group after a draw with Romania and losses to the Netherlands and Italy. Following the tournament, France began their qualification journey for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The start of their qualification in late 2008 included a surprising 3-1 loss to Austria and a 2-2 draw with Romania. They would go on to finish second in their qualifying group, setting up a controversial play-off match to secure their spot in the World Cup.
Key Players
Under the management of Raymond Domenech, the squad was a mix of established veterans and emerging talent. Key figures during this period included Thierry Henry, Franck Ribéry, Karim Benzema, and Patrick Vieira. Nicolas Anelka featured regularly, earning his place back in the national team setup for Euro 2008.
This is a pre-owned authentic vintage item. All kits sold at The Kit Dealer are checked, washed and treated by us - unless clearly listed as brand new with tags.
Our processing time for orders is typically 1–3 business days. We offer express shipping for domestic orders within Australia and optional express shipping for international customers.
Your satisfaction is our priority, and we take care to ensure your shirts arrive in top condition.
Old size labels lie. A 1996 large is not a 2026 large, and years of washing move the numbers again. So we don't print a one-size-fits-all chart on vintage shirts — we measure the shirt itself.
Ask below and our store staff will take this exact shirt off the rail, lay it flat and email you the real numbers, normally within 24 hours.
Chest — pit to pit, laid flat
Length — collar seam to hem
Sleeve, shoulder, or anything else you want checked
