Cristiano Ronaldo, Dembele, Griezmann, Mbappe & Varane Wear Player-Exclusive Long-Sleeve Nike 2022 World Cup Kits

Update: Images from France's locker room greatly show off that at least four players of France's squad prefer long-sleeved kits - Ousmane Dembélé, Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappe & Raphael Varane. The long-sleeve version of France's 2022 World Cup away kit is particularly great thanks to the continued graphic design (but not available to buy, in contrast to the replica long-sleeve shirt).

As in most previous matches, Cristiano Ronaldo did not wear a short-sleeve shirt but a long-sleeve shirt. It was the first time that Portugal wore the 2022 World Cup jersey, and so also the first look at the long-sleeve version of it.

Mbappe and Griezmann also sported long-sleeve kits

The authentic long-sleeve Portugal 2022 World Cup away kit is the same as the short-sleeve with one design difference - it comes without navy sleeve ends.
