Photo – Inter Legend Zanetti: “It’s More Than Just A Shirt, Being Part Of Inter’s History Is An Honour”

Legendary Inter defender and current club vice president Javier Zanetti has taken to photo sharing social media platform Instagram to celebrate the five year anniversary of Inter retiring his number four jersey.

Zanetti spent almost his entire career with Inter and in 19 years with the club, the former Argentine international made a club record 860 appearances across all competitions, the majority of which were made as captain of the club.

Zanetti, who scored 21 goals for Inter in that time, posted: “It’s more than just a shirt. It’s a story of love and life, a family, a second skin, an emotion over time.

“The retiring of the No4 was five years ago today and for this I will always thank Inter. Being part of the history of this club is an honour, every day.”

È più di una semplice maglia. È una storia d’amore e di vita, una famiglia, una seconda pelle, un’emozione nel tempo. Cinque anni fa, oggi, il ritiro della ‘numero 4’ per cui ringrazieró sempre l’Inter: essere parte della storia di questo club è un orgoglio, ogni giorno. 4⃣ @inter #JZ4Ever
