- Earps England goalkeepers shirts quickly sell out
- Nike U-turn saw them arrive after World Cup
- Sellers charging double the £99.99 retail price
WHAT HAPPENED? The yellow, green and pink England Women goalkeeper shirts that Nike eventually made available in the wake of the World Cup have quickly sold out, with many fans not getting a chance to buy one. However, some of those that were snapped up bearing Earp's name and the number one have already been spotted on eBay for double their original £99.99 price tag.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Nike originally weren't going to sell Lionesses goalkeeper jerseys at all this year, but criticism from Earps, who called it "hurtful", and the public backlash - including a petition signed by 170,000 people - saw the sportswear firm perform a U-turn and vow to make 'limited' quantities of the England, France, Netherlands and United States women goalkeeper jerseys available.
