According to every kind of standards now and in the 90s, Franco Baresi represents an excellence. The historic number 6 of AC Milan is, in fact, the epitome of the defensive leader, who lead the defense with his charisma before than with his movements. Offside magister, Baresi get into the Sarri-system in a exemplar way, improving it and improving himself too.
But Baresi was also a perfect representation of the Italian aesthetics of the 90s, slow, elegant and immerse in its own universe. Today it’s Baresi birthday, and we want to celebrate him in the best way possible.
