Not a recent reproduction, not a printing added after the fact.

Firstly, because kids' size jerseys are much less common on the vintage market than adult sizes – parents throw them away, children grow up, jerseys disappear. Secondly, because it bears the name of what was then one of the most anticipated strikers of his generation, within the best national team in the world.
