Franco Baresi

Franco Baresi Hoodies & T-Shirts

The sweeper who redefined the position. Franco Baresi spent his entire career at AC Milan- 719 appearances across 20 seasons - and is widely regarded as the greatest defender in Italian football history and among the finest the world game has produced. Players Couture celebrates il Capitano with over 15 name-lettering designs across hoodies and t-shirts.

Milan's Captain & Italy's Wall

Baresi won six Serie A titles and three European Cups with Milan- captaining the club through their most dominant era under Arrigo Sacchi and Fabio Capello in the late 1980s and 1990s. His Milan jersey number 6 was retired upon his departure - one of only a handful of players in world football to receive that honour. For Italy, he was a cornerstone of the 1982 World Cup winning squad and the captain who led the Azzurri to the 1994 World Cup final, where - having recovered from a meniscus operation just three weeks before - he stepped up to take the opening penalty in the shootout.
