PIC: Leicester’s Wes Morgan brought his shirt-swapping A-game to the Copa America group stage

Take a bow son

SportsJOE

Jamaica may have endured an atrocious group stage in the Copa America over the last week.

No goals in their three defeats saw them predictably eliminated as Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay all advanced to the knockout stages.

But defender Wes Morgan was the real group winner if shirt-swapping counted for anything, which we assure you it doesn’t.

The Leicester stalwart impressively managed to nab the jerseys of Lionel Messi and Edinson Cavani (and slightly less impressively that of Roque Santa Cruz) after each game.

While we reckon he’d make a pretty penny on eBay, he has some way to go if he is to reach the level of shirt-collector/professional footballer Gerard Pique.
