Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain have released a limited edition jersey with all funds raised going to local hospitals and nursing staff dealing with the coronavirus outbreak.
The shirt is a replica of PSG's current home strip, though the standard sponsor logo on the front is replaced with the emblem "TOUS UNIS" (All United).
A total of €262,500 will be raised if all 1,500 jerseys, which can be purchased at a price of €175 at the club's online store, are sold.
The funds raised from the shirt will be donated to Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP), a fund that supports 100,000 medical professionals, 39 hospitals and six university hospitals in and around the French capital.
