RE: all Under 16

James McCarthy of park forest, ill usa asks...

Hi,

Can the keeper wear a jersey with a bullseye on it?

Answer provided by Referee Richard Dawson

I suppose the Psychological element is to encourage shooters to aim right at him?
FIFA is fairly strict on advertising but as a decorative part of the jersey I suppose it could be permitted! That is just my opinion not a statement of go ahead and do so.
Cheers
