News'Two Local Lads who Shook the Kop' exhibition unveiled at Liverpool FC Museum

The ‘Jamie Carragher Collection’ will sit alongside the existing ‘Steven Gerrard Collection’ to form a new exhibit titled ‘Two Local Lads who Shook the Kop’.

One of the most decorated players in club history, Carragher amassed a glittering collection of silverware during an illustrious and lengthy Anfield career.

A boyhood Evertonian who grew up to become a Reds legend, Jamie rose through the ranks of the Academy to become a European champion. Bootle born and bred, he was part of the club’s first FA Youth Cup-winning side in 1996 and made his senior debut the following year.

Regarded as one of the best defenders in Europe at his peak, he was an integral figure in the Liverpool teams that won a cup treble in 2001 and arguably the greatest Champions League final ever, when the Reds defied the odds to defeat AC Milan in Istanbul, four years later.

A loyal and dedicated one-club man, Carragher made a total of 737 appearances before eventually hanging up his boots in 2013. Only Ian Callaghan has played more games for Liverpool.

A selection of his medals and the iconic shirts he wore in some of his most notable games – including jerseys from the 2001 FA Cup final and the 2005 Champions League final – are now on display in the Liverpool FC Museum.

Alongside the ‘Jamie Carragher Collection’ sits the ‘Steven Gerrard Collection’, which features a selection of special items including all of Steven’s medals, his MBE and shirts from some of his most notable games. Also included is his 100th cap for England, a selection of England shirts and the captain’s armbands worn during his playing career.
