The Inter Milan legend took time to wish the Nerazzurri a happy birthday, as the Beneamata look to celebrate their 104th anniversary.
The Argentinean joined the Nerazzurri from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Banfield-c38595 at the age of 21, and has been a mainstay in the Inter Milan team since then.
Zanetti is in his 18th season in Inter Milan colours, and the player has always shown his commitment for the club, a fact evident from the number of seasons spent at San Siro.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan was created after a split from the Milan Cricket and Football Club on March 9, 1908. The aim of the club was to provide better opportunities to players with different nationalities.
On this momentous occasion, the Inter Milan captain took time out to send a birthday greeting for Internazionale. The veteran started by stating:
“Happy birthday greetings to my dearest Inter. Being part of this beautiful family for so many years is a source of great pride. “
The Argentine international also took time to send his gratitude to the Inter Milan President, stating that this would not have been possible had he not moved for him in the summer of 1995.
“I can never stop thanking President [Massimo] Moratti for having given me this opportunity.”
The Beneamata skipper reflected on his past seasons, remarking on the beauty of the club, its history, and the time he spent in the Inter colours. He took time to congratulate and express his gratitude to all those involved with
turning the club’s fortunes.
“And over these many years it has been a great honour to share in the triumphs, but also the difficult times, with many directors, Coaches, teammates, staff members, and all the fans who love this club and who I thank for having
always been so supportive,” said the 38-year-old versatile player.
The Argentine reserved special praise in the end, and said that everyone involved with the club is unique because they are “Interesti”.
Inter Milan gave their fans a great birthday present, as they beat Chievo Verona 2-0 on Friday, March 9.
