Just find a tight fitting wool t-shirt in hiking section of an outdoor goods shop. For example Icebreaker or Houdini. But most of the retailers will have an own-brand that’s cheaper, probably 75% woool + 25 % Lycra at half the price of those big brands and probably a fifth of the price of an over engineered "wool cycling jersey" that usually includes zippers and vents that you don’t need - wool breathes well and is a wonder material.
*edit- Though who am I fooling- I don't compete and it ain't really like a little bit of flapping T-shirt makes a bit of different on any of my rides....!
