A THRILLED Brentford fan was sent a dozen “topsecret” Premier League balls by mistake.
Miki Morisson was expecting a hoodie when he found Nike prototypes in a box dropped off by courier firm DPD.
The electrician, 27, said: “As soon as I saw they were Premier League standard, I got quite excited.
“My hoodie only cost a few quid but these balls are just priceless.”
Four boxes of test balls for next season had been sent to Brentford’s training ground, close to Miki’s home in Hounslow, West London.
They weree specially embossed with Nike Flight 2023-2024.

Club bosses and Nike were frantic after one went missing.
It is thought the mix-up happened when a sticker with Miki’s address was put on the box.
A Nike source said: “Losing 12 was a big concern.
“They are top-secret until next season.”
