AC Milan 2016-2017 Third Shirt - Honda No.10 (XL)

The khaki green is even, with no fading or pilling. The red and white sleeve bands are crisp, the adidas three stripes on the sides are intact and the embroidered crest has no pulled threads. The only point noted: a few micro marks on the letters "ate" of the Emirates sponsor, detailed below.

Keisuke Honda, the number 10 from Japan

Keisuke Honda joined Milan in January 2014 from CSKA Moscow and immediately asked for the number 10, the shirt of Rivera, Gullit, Savićević and Seedorf. The choice made headlines in Italy and in Japan, where he was already the star of the national team.

The 2016-2017 season was his last in the rossonero shirt. Under Vincenzo Montella he played little, but remained the number 10 of a rebuilding Milan that returned to Europe by finishing sixth in Serie A.

23 December 2016: in Doha, Milan beat Juventus on penalties in the Italian Super Cup, their first trophy since 2011.

This khaki green third, rare in the club's history, stands out from the usual red and black. Honda left Milan in summer 2017 for Pachuca, in Mexico.
