Real Madrid Numbers:
According to the Portuguese sportspaper A Bola (the ball) Real Madrid has sold 1.2 million jerseys with RONALDO 9 in Madrid alone. The numbers should have been release by the club itself. Real Madrid has two stores itself in Madrid. One at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu and one in downtown Madrid very close to Puerta del Sol.
Whether the sales figure stems alone from these two stores is unclear or whether the sales also include what other retailers in Madrid have sold. Among the other retailers carrying the official Real Madrid jersey with the Ronaldo 9 name and number printing is another Madrid institution: El Corte Ingles. El Corte Ingles is a department store with branches across the Iberian peninsula. El Corte Ingles used to run the realmadrid.com online shop but since they are working primarily within the Spanish market this job was ultimately taken over my an UK online retailer with a more global perspective. However, El Corte Ingles has been well-stocked sports departments in its’ Madrid stores and one must assume that they have a considerable sale at these stores. Especially of Real Madrid but also of most other major Spanish teams including town rival Atletico Madrid + the usual suspects internationally such Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool, AC Milan, Inter, Juventus, FC Bayern etc.
But of course Madrid is not the only place where the Real Madrid Ronaldo 9 jersey is on sale so the world wide sales must have been considerable. A boon for adidas, Sporting ID (the producer of the name and number kit), and the club itself Real Madrid.
