Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on October 09, 1984)

Happy Birthday, Djamel Mesbah! May your celebrations be as swift and precise as those legendary runs down Parma's left flank. From Milan to Lecce, you've always defended with style—proving that the best offense is indeed a great defense (and occasionally sneaking forward for an unforgettable goal).

Since joining Algeria’s national team in 2010, you’ve shown us all how it's done on the international stage. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer yellow cards and more cake slices than ever before. Keep kicking strong—you’re not getting older; you're just perfecting your slide tackle technique!

Cheers to another fantastic year ahead!
