Everyone wants to get hold of their favourite footballer’s shirt.

Supporters come to stadiums hoping to get a player’s jersey, while shirt swaps between opposition players are a common occurrence after most games.

Rayo Vallecano goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski isn’t any ordinary player, though. The Macedonian shot-stopper doesn’t want anything from a fellow player; instead, he wants something from Real Madrid coach Carlos Ancelotti.

As noted by the commentators during Vallecano’s clash against Madrid, Dimitrievski wanted Ancelotti’s waistcoat. Dimitrievski is a huge fan of the Madrid manager and admires his style of coaching and his handling of his players during a game.

Ancelotti is one of football’s best-dressed managers, and his waistcoat has become a familiar sight on the touchlines.
