Italian soccer giant Napoli has been getting into the festive spirit by wearing jerseys with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer on the front.

The Serie A leader wore the holiday-themed kits in its recent friendly matches against Turkish Süper Lig side Antalyaspor and English Premier League side Crystal Palace.

The jersey proved to be a good omen as Luciano Spalletti's side won both games – beating Antalyaspor 3-2 and Crystal Palace 3-1.

Designed by Emporio Armani, the limited edition jersey is available to buy on Napoli's official website or Amazon for a cool $133.

"The magic of Christmas takes to the field," tweeted Napoli when it unveiled the shirt late in November.

The jersey is the eighth different shirt Napoli has worn this season.

On top of its home, away, and third kits, the Italian team has worn separately designed home, away, and third kits in European competitions.

It also wore a special Halloween jersey, which featured bats on its front, for two matches in October.

Last season, Napoli had 13 kits, which, according to Footy Headlines, would have cost fans almost $1,900 if they bought them all.
