Javier Zanetti is a former Argentine footballer. He played as right back or central defender and spent almost his entire career with Inter Milan of Italy's Serie A. He is the third-most capped player in the history of the Argentina national team (surpassed first by Javier Mascherano and then by Lionel Messi) and the most capped Argentine professional player. Since June 30, 2014, he has been the vice-president of Inter Milan, a Serie A club where he is regarded as one of the club’s greatest idols.
Zanetti played for Inter from 1995 until his retirement, taking the captain’s armband on August 29, 1999. Known for his versatility, he is adept on both left and right, after having played on both flanks as a defender and as a winger. He fits easily into several midfield positions, especially as a defensive midfielder.
Known as "Pupi" in Argentina, Zanetti was born in Buenos Aires, taking the nickname "El Tractor" shortly after his move to Italy, where his strength, athleticism, endurance, and ability to join the attack earned him reverence. Later in his career, he mainly played on the right side of midfield. He ended a four-year goal drought by scoring on November 5, 2006. With Argentina’s national team he operated as a right back, and he is capable of switching between defense and attack with ease. Zanetti won five Serie A titles with Inter Milan (all consecutively from 2006 to 2010), after earning the nickname “Il Capitano” (The Captain) among fans and the press since he took the captain’s armband at Inter Milan. From the 2011-12 season, he was the first non-Italian captain of a Serie A team. He holds the record for appearances by a non-Italian-born player for an Italian club, and his 834 official matches with the club made him first on Inter Milan’s all-time appearances list. Zanetti, who retired with Inter Milan, is also known for his charitable work, running a foundation that helps underprivileged children in Argentina. He has been named ambassador for SOS Children’s Villages, a project in Argentina supported by FIFA, and in 2005 he received the Ambrogino d’Oro, awarded annually in Milan, for his work with the PUPI foundation. Zanetti is also a global ambassador for Special Olympics.
On May 22, 2010, it was Zanetti’s 700th appearance for Inter, just on the day of the UEFA Champions League final against Bayern Munich, and Inter’s 2-0 victory sealed the Treble (Serie A, Coppa Italia, and Champions League in the same year), crowning a historic year. On October 20, 2010, he scored against Tottenham Hotspur to become the oldest player to score in the Champions League at the age of 37 years and 71 days. This mark has since been surpassed by Filippo Inzaghi and Ryan Giggs.
He played for the Argentina national team from 1994. With his national team, he won the gold medal at the 1995 Pan American Games and the silver medal in Atlanta 1996. Since October 2007, Zanetti has been the player with the most appearances for the national team, surpassing Roberto Ayala. He played in 2 World Cups, 2 Confederations Cups, and 5 Copa Américas with Argentina.
He was included in the FIFA 100, a list of the 125 greatest living footballers, compiled by Pelé at FIFA’s request.
He wears the number 4 as a retired shirt in recognition of his career with Inter Milan (1995-2014).
