Shock Milan, Baresi mural vandalized for second time

Franco Baresi memorial mural in Milan vandalized for the second time in weeks, with dark paint covering the captain's armband and other key elements.

A mural dedicated to Franco Baresi, the late AC Milan legend who died on July 31, has been vandalized for the second time in recent weeks. The artwork, located in Piazza Gino Valle outside Casa Milan, was defaced with dark paint that covered several prominent features including the captain's armband, the Milan crest, and the European Cup.

This is the second attack on the piece. In late September, the mural was first damaged with red spray paint. Street artist Luca Rosada, known as Lucas Street Art, restored it and created a new version using paste-up technique, which was unveiled on October 10. Just 16 days later, vandals struck again.
