Limited Edition DR Congo Heritage Jersey – Only 2026 Made

52 Years in the Making

In 1974, DR Congo — then known as Zaire — made history as the first sub-Saharan African nation to qualify for the FIFA World Cup. It was a moment of immense national pride, a statement to the world that African football had arrived on the grandest stage.

Now, 52 years later, the Leopards are back.

Celebrating a Historic Return

DR Congo's qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup is more than a sporting achievement — it's a generational moment. To honour this milestone, Umbro has created a limited edition jersey that captures the spirit, resilience, and passion of Congolese football.

Exclusively Limited to 2026 Pieces

In tribute to the year of their return, only 2,026 jerseys have been produced worldwide. Each one is a collector's item — a wearable piece of football history. Once they're gone, they're gone.
