The jersey has sold at least four times more than any other Ajax jersey. That's unique, said Marketing Chef Menno Geelen.
The song Three Little Birds of the Jamaican Reggae legend Marley has been unofficial hymn of the Ajax fans for more than a decade, since she had to linger in 2008 after a test kick at Cardiff City in the stadium and a DJ played the song.
Since then, the fans sing the iconic text lines Do not Worry, About A Thing / 'Cause Every Little Thing, Gonna Be All Right at every game.
