The "Milan" jersey signed by Gerard Martino was gifted by Maldini

Barcelona football club defender Gerard Martin received a valuable gift from the famous footballer Paolo Maldini on his birthday. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The Italian football legend gifted Gerard a "Milan" team jersey with his signature and personal greeting. This was reported by euro-football.ru.

In Maldini's congratulatory message, sincere birthday wishes were expressed to Gerard, along with wishes for luck and success in his football career. This gift holds special significance because Gerard's teammates jokingly call him "Gerard Maldini."

This nickname quickly became popular and even turned into a meme on social networks. Although Gerard Martin is known as a left-back defender, he has also successfully performed as a central defender.

Paolo Maldini also played in exactly these two positions as a footballer and was famous for his reliable play. On February 26, Gerard Martin turned 24 years old.

Receiving such a gift from Paolo Maldini is undoubtedly a special motivation for the young footballer.
