“Even (Manchester) United fans have been doing it!! UP THE BLUES.”

The Lech Poznan shirt has Gallagher’s name on the back and the number 12, which the club said was “reserved for the fans – our twelfth player”.

In a letter accompanying the shirt, the club wrote: “We’ve seen the recordings from your concerts where you encourage Oasis fans to join in and do ‘the Poznan’ – and we have to say, it really makes a huge impression!

“Perhaps one day you would like to visit our city as well – either to play a show here or to experience first hand the unique atmosphere of a Lech match at our stadium.
