Walkouts FC Augsburg signed football shirts and memorabilia

About

Fußball-Club Augsburg 1907 e. V., commonly known as FC Augsburg, was founded on 1 January 1907 and is a German professional football club based in Augsburg, Bavaria that competes in the Bundesliga. Walkouts features signed football shirts and related memorabilia from the club's modern era, focused on authenticated retail and player signatures.

The team began life as Fußball-Klub Alemannia Augsburg and later played as BC Augsburg, rising through regional leagues before establishing itself in the national system. Promotion to the top flight arrived in 2011 and the club consolidated its position while moving to the south of the city to the WWK ARENA, a single-tier stadium with a standing terrace known as the Ulrich-Biesinger-Tribüne and training facilities adjacent to the ground.

Across its history the club has not claimed a top-flight championship, a fact reflected in shirt collecting where league winners' provenance is rare; the side is therefore best described as having no major domestic titles. Internationally FCA made its European debut and reached the Europa League Round of 32, a milestone that elevated interest in the sleeves and badges worn during that campaign.

Anniversary releases are a clear collector focus for Augsburg fans. The club's Centenary 2007 release, tied to the 1907-2007 crest and centenary branding, remains sought after by local collectors who prize match-style retail runs and limited commemoration kits issued through the club shop near Augsburg Hauptbahnhof.

Specific seasons drive demand for shirts beyond general fandom. The 2010-11 promotion year that secured the club's first Bundesliga berth, the 2014-15 campaign that produced a fifth-place finish and European qualification, and the 2015-16 Europa League fixtures all attract strong interest because shirts from promoted squads and inaugural European sets mark clear moments in the club's timeline.

Away sets have particular provenance. The 2015-16 white away shirt with green details was worn for key Europa League trips and is often chased because of its continental association and photographic records from away ties. Fans and collectors value colourways that tie directly to decisive continental fixtures, and white and green combinations remain the most recognisable away variant from that era.

Fanshop retail pieces are explicitly collectible alongside match-worn shirts, with early production runs, player-issue variants and region-specific releases creating distinct subcategories of demand, and provenance is commonly supported by documentation. Items from commemorative drops and club shop exclusives are often sold with a Centenary 2007 provenance note or backed by a COA, reflecting the preference for authenticated retail signatures over unverified pieces.

Collectors browsing FCA material should note the appeal of the 2010-11 promotion shirts and the era-defining white with green trim away set when assessing provenance and display value; pieces tied to the 2014-15 European qualification season and the 2015-16 Europa League runs are particularly prominent in the market, and final photographic evidence often accompanies retail-signed examples, making them top targets for framed shirts and signed displays at Walkouts.

Honours

FC Augsburg’s honours story is defined by resilient progress to the German elite and a memorable European entry rather than a haul of domestic trophies. After decades across the second and third tiers, promotion to the Bundesliga in 2011 marked a watershed. The club’s peak arrived in 2014-15 with a record fifth-place finish that secured continental football for the first time. In the subsequent campaign, Augsburg debuted in the UEFA Europa League and advanced to the Round of 32, where a tight two-leg tie against Liverpool was settled 1-0 on aggregate. Those seasons cemented Augsburg’s reputation for organisation and strong home backing, laying the groundwork for sustained top-flight consolidation. Recognition has also come from global ranking bodies, with the club listed by IFFHS at rank 226, reflecting steady international standing. While major domestic titles remain an ambition, the club’s ascent, European knockout experience and ability to compete in Germany’s top division stand as headline achievements.

Legends & Leadership

Daniel Baier is regarded as a recent key player of the mid-2010s, embodying the team-first identity that underpinned Augsburg’s record fifth-place finish and subsequent European campaign, helping to anchor the club during a period of sustained Bundesliga consolidation.

Tobias Werner emerged as a recent key player of the early 2010s, contributing across Augsburg’s climb into the top flight and the settling-in years that followed promotion, when the team established itself against elite opposition.

Halil Altintop stands out as a recent key player of the mid-2010s whose experience supported Augsburg through their Europa League run, adding composure and know-how as the club navigated knockout football for the first time.

Stadium

The WWK Arena, also known simply as the WWK Arena, has been FC Augsburg’s home since 2009 and holds 30,660. Set just south of the city centre, it is easily reached by tram and is designed as a single-tier bowl. The atmosphere is driven by a standing terrace behind one goal, the Ulrich-Biesinger-Tribüne, with away supporters accommodated in a standing section in the opposite corner. Augsburg’s home support is consistently strong, with average attendances in 2023-24 close to capacity, creating a vibrant matchday. Local edge comes from regional rivalries with Ingolstadt and TSV 1860 Munich, while Bavarian derbies against Bayern Munich are regular sell-outs. The stadium’s compact form and acoustics, together with the club’s red, green and white identity, make for an intense Bundesliga experience that reflects the team’s industrious style and the city’s football culture.
