Peter Schmeichel won 15 trophies in eight seasons at Manchester United, captained the side to the 1999 Champions League final and won the European Championship with Denmark in 1992. Most of the stock behind this page is his — but three items belong to his son.
Thirty of the 33 listings are Manchester United goalkeeper shirts, Schmeichel #1, from seasons between 1993 and 1999. Every one is a goalkeeper shirt; there is nothing else in the group. Prices run from about £84 to £360 with a median near £210, and grades from 5/10 to 9/10 with a median of 7.
A 2012-13 Leicester City goalkeeper shirt and two 2018-19 Leicester shirts, all #1, are Kasper Schmeichel, also a Denmark international goalkeeper. The surname is the only thing they share with the rest of the page.
An unusual share of the United shirts are in youth sizes — several marked Y, plus 13-14 and 15-16 years. Those sell for roughly half what the adult sizes do, around £120 to £150 against £210 to £360. The reason is simple: the wild, oversized Schmeichel-era keeper designs were bought for children in large numbers, and children outgrow shirts before they wear them out, so they survive in better condition than the adult versions.
