Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on January 09, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Gennaro "Rino" Gattuso! The man whose tackles were tougher than grandma's meatloaf and whose passion on the pitch made even referees think twice before blowing their whistles. From your legendary days at AC Milan—winning Serie A titles, two Champions League trophies (2003 & 2007), and that unforgettable World Cup triumph in 2006—you've always been football’s fiercest warrior.

Even now as a manager, you bring intensity to every sideline encounter; we wouldn't dare argue with those fiery eyes of yours! May this birthday be filled with laughter—and fewer yellow cards. Cheers to another year of grit-filled greatness!
