OGC Nice’s new jersey is a touching and fitting tribute to the 84 people killed when an attacker drove a lorry into a crowd in the city.
The club has foregone a sponsor across the front of their new shirt. Instead, the club has printed the names of all 84 victims on in the place of a sponsor’s logo.
The names are printed in black against the white shirt, and coiled around in the shape of a heart.
This is true class from the French club.
