THE TRUE STORY BEHIND,
CRUYFF'S NUMBER 14
AJAX - PSV: October 30, 1970
Johan Cruyff wore the number 14 shirt
for the first time during Ajax vs. PSV.
Gerrie Mühren had lost his shirt,
Cruyff handed him his number 9
and took number 14 instead.
Ajax won 1–0, and Cruyff stuck
with the number. The rest is history.

Typical Cruyff…
A LITTLE SUPERSTITION AND A TOUCH OF STUBBORNNESS.
A coincidence that turned into a legendary number.
In 2007, Ajax officially retired the number 14 shirt in honour of Cruyff.
And we honour him too with our Amsterdam City Pack.
