The player: Inacio Pia

Inacio Pià, real name João Batista Inácio (Ibitinga, Brazil, March 22, 1982), is a former Italian-Brazilian striker who grew up in Atalanta's youth academy. After experiences at Ascoli and Napoli, where he achieved two promotions to Serie A, in January 2010 he moved on loan to Torino, then playing in the Serie B championship. With the Granata shirt, he made 17 appearances and scored 3 goals, all decisive for the Piedmontese team in victories against Albinoleffe, Grosseto, and Vicenza. An injury prevented him from taking part in the promotion playoffs, and he was not redeemed by the club at the end of the season. A natural left winger with good technique, he continued his career in Serie B and Lega Pro before retiring in 2017.

What is a signed Player Issued shirt?

A Player Issued shirt is a uniform prepared specifically for the team kit, with reserved finishes, labels, and materials that distinguish it from the commercial version. When such an item also bears the player's original autograph, its collectible value increases further: the rarity of the reserved supply is combined with the uniqueness of the signature, applied by hand with irregular pressure and three-dimensionality of the ink verifiable by eye. In this case, there is also a personal dedication written by the player, an element that makes the piece even more unique. These characteristics are accompanied by official documentation: the MTM Letter of Authenticity and the COA Certificate of Authenticity, already included in the price.
