The shirt worn by Sir Bobby Charlton in The 1966 World Cup semi-final is set to go under The Hammer .
The signed top was worn by The Football Icon as he scored both goals in England's 2-1 win over Portugal on 26 July 1966.
Sir Bobby died on 21 October, aged 86, prompting tributes from across The sporting world.
The shirt is being sold by Derbyshire-based Hansons Auctioneers with a guide price of £50,000 to £80,000.
Sir Bobby is considered one of The Greatest footballers of all time, winning The World Cup , The European Cup - Now The Champions League - The First Division, Fa Cup and The Ballon d'Or.
He died last month, an inquest heard.
David Wilson-Turner, head of sports memorabilia at Etwall-based Hansons, said: " It marks a magical moment in sporting history, The One and only time England have won The World Cup .
" The shirt was originally donated by Sir Bobby to a charity auction after The 1966 World Cup .
" He autographed it, personally dedicated it to The successful bidder and confirmed he wore The shirt in The Game against Portugal. "
The shirt was later purchased by a West Midlands man who won The Littlewoods Pools in The early 1990s, Hansons said.
It was bought for £9,200 - equivalent to about £20,000 Today - at a London auction in 2000, where it had an estimate of between £10,000 - £15,000.
The auction is due to take place on 14 November.
