SPORTS Direct has promised to give away free England shirts if England win the World Cup.
The chain will dish out souvenir t-shirts via their app if the Three Lions are left holding the trophy in Moscow next week.
The move comes after fans slammed greedy sports retailers for jacking up the price of replica England shirts.
Online retailer UKSoccershop raised the price of the men’s home kit from £64.99 to £69.99 at the start of the contest.
Littlewoods.com has also pushed up the cost of certain items of kit such as the Nike black squad shirt, which has risen from £36 to £45.
But Sports Direct want to offer fans an alternative so they can celebrate the big match in style.
The souvenir shirts would feature the iconic Three Lions logo with the words '2018 Winners' underneath.
The shirts will be available while stocks last if England are victorious in the tournament. The app is still available via the Apple and Google app stores in the normal way.
A spokesman for Sports Direct said: "Football's coming home!
