1/1 I am saddened by the news of the passing of my former AC Milan teammate and big brother, Franco Baresi, who lost his battle with a protracted illness on July 31. Our paths crossed in the late 90s when I first joined the Italian Serie A club.

[AC Milan @acmilan]

Our number 6, forever. ♾️
Ciao, Capitano ❤️🖤

One of the greatest defenders of all time.

Here's Franco Baresi in the 1994 World Cup final at 34-years-old, putting in an incredible performance 24 days after suffering a severe meniscus tear that required surgery.

RIP

Il 19 novembre 1995 ho esordito in Serie A contro il Milan. Avevo 17 anni e dall'altra parte c'era il capitano di quella squadra: Franco Baresi.

Per un ragazzo della mia età, trovarsi in campo contro campioni come lui era qualcosa di incredibile. Da quel giorno ho avuto ancora più chiaro cosa significasse rappresentare il calcio con classe, leadership e rispetto.

Ciao Franco. Riposa in pace.

Diego Maradona after Napoli v Milan in 1989:

“This one is from a big player. I think that Franco Baresi is the best defender. This shirt will be a memory that I will keep for the rest of my life."

La Storia del Milan è in lacrime per la scomparsa di Franco Baresi. Il suo esempio e la sua profondità saranno, per sempre come la sua maglia numero 6, parte integrante e fondamentale del DNA e del cammino di tutto il Club. Le condoglianze che AC Milan porge alla famiglia tutta di Franco Baresi sono le stesse che ogni tifoso rossonero fa a sé stesso in un'ora così dura.

The entire history of AC Milan is in tears following the passing of Franco Baresi. His example and integrity will be forever etched into the Club's DNA, just as his iconic number 6 shirt is. The condolences AC Milan extends to Franco Baresi's family at such a difficult time are shared by every Rossonero, who feels this loss as their own.

Deeply saddened to hear that Gerry Kelly died this morning. There was always a huge buzz around Havelock House on a Friday when The Kelly Show was on air. People will miss his cheerful countenance. But to us, his colleagues, he was family. We are all family right now!!!

Death by coat peg. That’s no way to go…

A tragic day in Portuguese football as Boavista are forced to shut down and cease all operations. The end of a historic 123-year old institution.

One of just 5 teams to have ever won the Portuguese top flight, this marks the painful demise of one of Portugal's biggest clubs.

David Batty talking after missing the vital penalty in England’s defeat to Argentina at France ‘98 is one of the most impressive post match interviews you’ll ever see.

No hiding. No excuses. No self pity.

If anyone could deal with that situation, it was Batty.
