Person
Born
Football, Brescia, AC Milan, Juventus and Italy. Pirlo started as an attacking midfielder behind the strikers, struggled to hold a place in that role, and was moved into a deep playmaking position in front of the defence, first at Brescia under Carlo Mazzone and then at Milan under Carlo Ancelotti. From there he won two Champions Leagues, the 2006 World Cup and, after Milan let him go at 32, four straight Serie A titles with Juventus.
