Paolo Maldini: Il Capitano (Video)
By Chris Wright
Paolo Maldini. Il Capitano. The longest-serving one-club man in football history. He’s won everything there is to win and then done it all again. A man who stood on the very apex of committed defending for almost 25 years. Cultured, consummate and quintessentially Italian…
The greatest left-back-cum-centre-half to have ever graced the footballing sphere? I, for one, certainly wouldn’t see fit to argue with you.

A truly loyal and passionate professional
A tough, but fair and gracious tackler…What an example.
Too bad the music is utterly crap.
It’s a damn shame he never got world or european player of the year
Hard to believe he has the fastest goal in a Champions League final
The music is shite. Maldini was a class act.
It deserved a bit of good ol’ Tchaikovsky.
