PLAYERS BACK AUCTION IN MEMORY OF JON HUMBLE

Manchester United’s women’s and men’s players have come together to support an auction of unique signed items to raise money for the family of a beloved former colleague.

Jon Humble tragically passed away at the age of 44 last month after a short illness.

He was the women’s team kit lead and also worked with our men’s Academy during six years with United.

Our women’s team organised a collection of signed items to raise funds for Jon’s young family, and these have now been put up for auction on the MatchWornShirt website.

Lots include signed shirts from the national teams of our women’s international players, including two England shirts signed by Ella Toone, Maya Le Tissier, Jess Park and their fellow Lionesses, and others from Norway, Canada and Wales.

Match-worn United shirts and boots are among other items donated by the women’s squad, as well as men’s players including Bruno Fernandes, Lisandro Martinez and Mason Mount.

Former United players Alessia Russo, Mary Earps, Ona Battle and Alejandro Garnacho have also contributed to the auction, as well as the on-loan Marcus Rashford. 

Fans are encouraged to get behind the auction in support of Jon’s beloved wife, Claire, and their three young children.
