On the back stands out the large red number 6, the number historically associated with Franco Baresi and retired by Milan at the end of his career. The captain's autograph is signed in black marker directly on the number, clear and perfectly legible. This item is in size L, in Excellent condition, with intact colors and prints; there is a small stain on the right shoulder, visible in the photos.

The Captain: Franco Baresi

Franco Baresi (Travagliato, May 8, 1960 – Milan, July 31, 2026) joined Milan's youth academy at thirteen and never left the club until his retirement in 1997, after twenty years in the first team. A central defender of rare tactical intelligence, he became captain in 1982 and led the Rossoneri through the eras of Arrigo Sacchi and Fabio Capello, winning six Scudetti, three European Cups, and two Intercontinental Cups. With the Italian national team, he reached the 1994 World Cup final, played despite undergoing meniscus surgery just twenty-five days earlier. Milan retired his number 6 in his honor: a recognition reserved for very few captains in the history of Italian football.

What distinguishes an original autographed jersey?

An original autographed jersey bears the footballer's signature applied directly to the fabric, in a certified setting and without intermediaries. The elements that make it recognizable are verifiable to the naked eye: the irregular pressure of the stroke, the three-dimensionality of the ink on the fibers, and the natural flow of the graphic gesture compared to a printed reproduction or facsimile. Added to this is the MTM Letter of Authenticity (LOA), included for free with every autograph, along with the Certificate of Authenticity (COA) included in the price. For a legend like Franco Baresi, whose number was retired by the club he represented for an entire career, the value of an authentic autograph tends to grow constantly over time.

Official AC Milan Certificate of Authenticity

The autograph is accompanied by an Official Certificate of Authenticity issued directly by AC Milan, which certifies that the signature originated through the club's official channels, and by an MTM Letter of Authenticity (LOA), both included in the price. It is the most direct guarantee possible for an autograph from a Rossoneri legend, signed by the captain during his lifetime.
