Milan Futre

Maybe looking for an opportunity, knowing that the club owner of their rights would not give those minutes they needed to prove himself, or maybe had already given their best years of football but refused to stop breathing the scent of green or experience the atmosphere of a stadium, or simply were fleeting way stations on their way. A few saw a group of players who will be reminded every time you withdraw by having worn a shirt but for a few steps, not be part of a select one club man. Today we will see other players who, although they are remembered for more than a club, dressed other shirts over their careers that are not remembered. Strange images, other than those we have in our mind, defending another shield that we associate when these players come to mind. But he also wore another shirt that:

Because Barcelona and Seville were not the only shirts in Spain of one of the Big Four.

In a friendly against Swedish and Malmoe in a packed stadium for the big event, Diego Armando, Hugo and Lalo were teammates for a day. On top scored. That year, eventually descending Granada.

But before the Balkan state independizase, Suker had debuted with Yugoslavia, with whom he got to play two games scoring a goal, being present also in the World Cup Italia 90. The image belongs to the world junior Chile'87, where they would be champions and attack form and Mijatovic. You can also see Jarni and Prosinecki, some of the props after the Croatian national team.

Franck Ribéry (Galatasaray)

Galatasaray Ribery

The Ribery was not an immediate explosion. He debuted with 18 years in the Union Sportive de Boulogne to pass later by Olympique Ales, Brest and Metz before making the jump to the Turkish league to wear the shirt of Galatasaray. However, their presence in Istanbul will be best remembered for his quarrels and criminal police that his football, but, yes, he scored a decisive goal that helped his club win the Turkish Cup.

Pirlo was then a promising future trequartista before becoming a consolidated midfielder present. After not finding nerazzurro minutes was given to the Reggiana and Brescia to complete signing for arch rivals AC Milan for 18 million euros plus the Serbian Brncic. Few can say they have worn the shirt of Inter, Milan and Juventus (including Ibrahimovic or Roberto Baggio).
