Franco Baresi’s final season gives the AC Milan 1996/97 Home Retro Jersey a particular place in Rossoneri collections. After two decades with the club, the captain retired in 1997, and Milan retired his number 6 in recognition of his contribution. The shirt recalls the closing chapter of a career spent entirely in red and black.
Broad stripes, the white Opel sponsor and Lotto chest logo place the design firmly in Milan’s mid-nineties era. The black fold-over collar carries fine red trim, while a tricolour shield and gold star sit on the chest.
Baresi 6 printing completes the back, with white lettering above a large number edged in black. For supporters who followed the captain through his Milan years, the connection is personal: the home colours of his last season, carrying the number the club would retire with him.

This jersey comes with Baresi 6 printing as shown.
Our extensive retro collection requires additional preparation time to ensure each jersey meets our quality standards before dispatch. Where player or personal name printing is included, the season-specific lettering is sourced and carefully applied—a process that requires precision and attention to detail.
Our estimated dispatch timeframe is 5–10 business days, with or without customisation. Some jerseys may be ready sooner, while preparation can take a few additional business days during peak periods or when order volumes are high.
★★★★★Blair TurrisiMy experience with ITA Sport was flawless. I ordered a hard-to-find jersey on pre-order order online, which meant that the wait time was uncertain. The communication from Ernesto was second to none - not only did he keep me up to date with what was happening, but he could not have been warmer or more sincere in his communication. The jersey is better than expected and has been a huge hit! I would not hesitate for a second to recommend buying from ITA Sport.

My soccer crazed daughter recently became the proud owner of an Azzuri track suit outfit - and says “it’s by far , the best tracksuit combination and favourite sports gear she has ever worn”
