Jogi Loew’s World Cup sweater sold for €1 million, given to museum

Jogi Loew donated his lucky sweater from the 2010 World Cup to a children's charity, which then sold it for €1 million to retailer Galeria Kaufhof, which then donated it to the German football museum. Though the museum won't be built until 2014, Jogi handed over the sweater to a representative for it on Monday.

Said Jogi (via Bild):

"Look over him well, so he gets no moth holes. Maybe we can still use it - at the World Cup 2018 in Russia's cold..."

If he tries to wear it in Qatar in 2022, however, he would probably burst into flames. Or just feel kind of uncomfortable.
