Inter Legends will be involved in a match in Batumi next March as part of the "Legend Series", a project created in Georgia to celebrate football through the participation of figures who have made the sport great.
The line-up of Nerazzurri Legends will include Vice President Javier Zanetti, Luis Figo, Marco Materazzi and Esteban Cambiasso, along with other players who have made history with the Club. The upcoming friendly will also feature historic Georgian footballers, including Shota Arveladze (the highest goalscorer in the history of the Georgia national team), Levan Kobiashvili, Giorgi Kinkladze and Temur Ketsbaia.
“We’re excited to return to Georgia, where Inter haven’t played since the 1970s. This match is a great opportunity: our Legends will face some great Georgian champions, and there is also the chance to strengthen the bond between our two countries. Sporting events like this also attract the attention of the younger generations, as well as those who got to admire these great champions in the past.”
Alessandro Antonello, FC Internazionale Milano CEO Corporate
“I’m very happy I’ll have the opportunity to play in a country where there’s a real passion for football. Many of my teammates and I never had the opportunity to visit Georgia during our football careers, but this initiative will make it possible. It’ll be a fantastic match.”
Esteban Cambiasso
