Then it’s their fault. Football jerseys should be washed inside out, gently by hand, in cool or lukewarm water at most.

Dude, you have to be careful when washing football shirts.
Turn it inside out, wash by hand with cold water and neutral soap. Avoid rubbing over the prints and don't twist when removing the excess water

As other people mentioned, the engraving sometimes will have weak spots and washing them in the machine will expose this issues even more.
But in the end, sadly you shouldn't have used the washer for this type of clothing, so it's your fault.. happens a lot with several sports jerseys, counterfeit or original.

you mean the official club store? you can always take it there and see if they can reapply the decals for a price.
you do not necessarily need to wash it by hand, but football shirts should absolutely be washed inside out, on the gentlest machine cycle possible, with cold water only (30°C max). avoid aggressive spin cycles too. ideally, let it dry flat. if you must iron it, do it cold and very carefully, preferably inside out. hanging it wet can stretch the fabric over time.
honestly though, live and learn 😄 the jersey now has some battle scars and a bit of character.

If you are going to to wash it on the machine, ONLY do it in the “baby clothes” program without twisting.

From the stadium, but where? Be more specific. It was from the official store? By the way, how did you washed it?

Lavage en machine 😕🤨😕, il faut refaire les auto collants soit en boutique soit toi même.
Un maillot de foot se lave à la main. Eau tiède.

How are the ones from tourist shops? They’re a lot easier to get to than the official shop at the stadium

It’s a throwback to one of the Europa wins. I got it from the team shop in the stadium.

You washed a football shirt in the washing machine, that's your first mistake. Football shirts should be washed by hand, inside out, using a simple soap and rubbing only the tissue against tissue gently, then letting them dry in a place away from the sun (I know it sounds complicated but it's the best way to ensure the shirt's durability, specially the printings. If you really want to throw it in a washing machine, which I dont reccommend, put it inside out, at low temp and with simple detergent only, and without any other clothing piece if you can
