The Nigeria Super Eagles jersey for the 2018 World Cup in Russia has been popular both at home and abroad. In Nigeria’s commercial hub, Lagos, the question isn’t whether you’re going to buy the neon green and white zig-zag jersey of the national football team, it’s how much you want to pay.

The official Super Eagles jersey is priced at $85 at the Nike store.

But one Lagos market trader said he sells jerseys shipped from Thailand for 17,000 naira ($47, 40 euros), and demand is huge.

“The ones I sell here are the highest quality in the market,” he told AFP. “By 2:00 pm I’ll get another 1,000 pieces, by the weekend it will be gone.”

The monthly minimum wage in Nigeria is set at 18,000 naira, making even that price too high for many people.
