Let's make this birthday one to remember.

46 years old (Born on May 12, 1979)

Happy Birthday, Matteo Ferrari! You're aging like fine Italian wine—smooth on the field and always classy off it. From your rock-solid defending at Parma to that unforgettable Olympic bronze medal in Athens 2004, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer.

Whether gracefully tackling opponents or scoring crucial goals for clubs like Roma and Montreal Impact, you’ve consistently shown style worthy of a true calcio legend. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and hopefully fewer yellow cards than candles!

Here's wishing you another year as brilliant as your best defensive moves: timelessly elegant and effortlessly cool. Auguri campione!
