Walkouts signed football shirts Molde collectors' range

About

1911 Molde Fotballklubb is a football club from Molde that competes in Eliteserien, Norway’s top flight. Founded on 19 June 1911, the club’s long history and European nights make its signed football shirts highly collectible, and Walkouts lists authenticated retail and match-issued examples for specialist buyers.

The club’s home is the Aker Stadion, opened in 1998 after funding from local benefactors, a compact ground with an 11,249 capacity and a clear connection to the town. Before Aker Stadion the team played at Molde stadion, which still holds the club record attendance, and the groundside provenance of shirts from both venues is an important factor for collectors.

On the pitch Molde are recognised as five-time league champions and have lifted the Norwegian Cup repeatedly, while the club’s top continental achievement is their UEFA Champions League participation which included the memorable 1999-2000 group stage fixtures. The club is also noted in global listings, holding an IFFHS rank of 144, which collectors sometimes cite when assessing a club’s modern profile.

Supporter culture around Tornekrattet and the Rosenes Derby is a steady source of provenance for match-era shirts, and special releases matter to local fans. The club marked its centenary with a notable commemoration and collector interest in anniversary pieces grew after the 2011 celebrations and special crest sets issued that year, while supply and product-code notes from the Nike era help verify era-specific retail runs.

Collectors chase specific seasons and fixtures for clear reasons, in particular the 1999-2000 UCL campaign when teams such as Real Madrid visited, and the club’s European runs and domestic doubles that followed. Iconic away pieces include the white away shirt worn during recent continental excursions, a colourway tied to key away results and cup progress. Provenance cues such as European match-issue fonts, early retail runs and player-issue variants make these shirts desirable.

Fans and collectors explicitly search for signed fanshop shirts as well as match-worn items; retail signatures, limited early production runs and region-specific releases are catalogued alongside match-issued pieces, and COA is often supplied with signed items to support authenticity. For framed displays, signatures from noted alumni and authenticated retail editions are frequently requested, with product codes and supplier era notes used to confirm dates and releases.

Whether you are studying centenary releases or tracking memorable campaigns, items from the 2011 centenary, the 1999-2000 UCL group stage and the 2014 domestic double appear regularly in provenance notes, and COA-backed retail shirts are commonly listed by sellers. Walkouts presents these verified items with clear provenance, and the catalogue often references seasons such as 1999-2000 and 2014 alongside Europa League runs for matching context and display use.

Honours

Molde FK has established itself among Norway's leading sides with a domestic trophy cabinet that includes five league titles and six Norwegian Cup victories. League triumphs came across recent campaigns and the club has also finished as runners‑up on numerous occasions in decisive title races, including a narrow loss late in the season that decided the championship in the 1980s. Cup success notably includes the 1994 Norwegian Cup final victory that helped galvanise organised support. On the continental stage Molde is one of only three Norwegian clubs to have reached the UEFA Champions League group phase and hosted high‑profile opponents in that campaign. The club's standing has been recognised in international metrics with an IFFHS rank among national peers.

Legends & Leadership

Ole Gunnar Solskjær is remembered as a defining figure for the club both on the field and later from the touchline, and his impact as a legend player is rooted in the 1990s.

Daniel Berg Hestad is celebrated for his longevity and influence around the turn of the millennium and is regarded as a legend player from the 1990s.

Mohamed Elyounoussi remains a recent key player whose contributions are associated with the mid‑2010s and who helped raise Molde's profile domestically and in Europe.

Erling Moe has been the club's manager since the departure of his predecessor in December 2018 and was appointed permanent head coach in April 2019, guiding the side through several championship campaigns.

Stadium

Molde's home is commonly referred to as Aker Stadion, a purpose‑built ground opened in 1998 as a gift from local benefactors and now set as the club's primary venue. The stadium's listed capacity is 11,249, and it replaced the older Molde stadion, which still holds the club record attendance of 6,615 from earlier decades. Matchdays are noted for passionate local support led by the Tornekrattet supporters and a heated rivalry underscored by fixtures against Rosenborg. The compact bowl and coastal setting contribute to an intimate, vocal atmosphere that is characteristic of league and cup evenings at the stadium.
