Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on March 19, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Alessandro Nesta! The man whose tackles were smoother than Italian espresso and whose defensive skills made strikers reconsider their career choices. Your legendary performances at AC Milan—especially those Champions League nights—still make us smile wider than your trophy cabinet.

From Lazio to Milan, you turned defending into an art form. Opponents feared your calm composure as much as they envied your impeccable hair. Even retirement couldn't diminish the legacy of a defender who tackled gracefully yet fiercely. Here's wishing you another year filled with joy, laughter, and fewer yellow cards off the pitch! Buon compleanno, legend!
