Argentinos Juniors

Argentinos Juniors are one of Argentine football's most significant clubs, not for the scale of their trophy cabinet but for the extraordinary talent they have introduced to the world. The stadium in La Paternal now carries the name of Diego Armando Maradona, who debuted for the club at just 15 years old in 1976, becoming the Argentine league's youngest-ever player at the time. A 1985 Copa Libertadores triumph confirms that the club's place in football history goes well beyond being Maradona's first home. Founded in 1904, Argentinos Juniors play at the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona in Buenos Aires and compete in the Argentine Primera Division. Key honours include the 1985 Copa Libertadores and eight Argentine championships. Their stadium, renamed in honour of their most famous graduate, stands as a permanent monument to the greatest player who ever walked through their doors. Red and white with a diagonal white stripe across the red shirt is the Argentinos Juniors identity, a design worn by the teenage Maradona when he announced himself to Argentine football in 1976. The 1985 Copa Libertadores winning shirts are the most significant pieces in the club's wardrobe. The diagonal design gives the shirt real visual character in Buenos Aires football. Every shirt collector with an eye for South American football history needs an Argentinos piece in their collection.
