Even on international duty, the Arsenal way shines through.
Riccardo Calafiori may not have played a minute for Italy against Turkey in the Nations League, but he still found a way to make a young fan’s night unforgettable.
After the final whistle in Bursa, the Arsenal defender walked over, removed his Azzurri jersey, and handed it to an excited young lad in the stands. The pure joy on the boy’s face said everything.
This is what representing Arsenal means. Not just the performances in red and white, but the class, kindness, and connection that our players show wherever they are in the world.
Calafiori carried the values of this club onto the international stage and left a lifelong memory with a child who will never forget the moment an Arsenal player made him feel special.
Proud of you, Riccardo.This is the Arsenal way. ❤️
