If you watched the match between Cagliari and Milan yesterday, you may have noticed unusual names on the shirts of Milan's and Cagliari's players. There was a reason for this.
AC Milan Players to Wear Mothers' Surnames on Jerseys in Serie A Match for Identity Awareness
AC Milan players wore their mothers' surnames on their shirts in the Serie A match against Cagliari. This is part of an initiative to raise awareness of the right to personal identity.
This action follows an Italian law which states that both parents have the right to choose the surname of their children.
Milan and Cagliari are not the only teams to wear mothers' surnames on their shirts this weekend. Others include Torino, Genoa and Udinese.
