Italian Football Captain Giorgio Chiellini Releases NFT Collection
Giorgio Chiellini, an Italian national football team captain, has launched a brand-new collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). According to reports, the collection will reflect the captain’s “gladiatorial spirit.”
Giorgio Chiellini has announced his NFT collection is available to buy on Blockasset. His NFT’s reflect the Italy and Juventus captain’s gladiatorial spirit, with the chance to meet the man himself and receive a match worn shirt of his from UEFA EURO 2020.
A unique NFT, entitled The Gladiator, featuring Chiellini in Ancient Roman costume. The highest bidder for The Gladiator will also get the chance to meet Chiellini, plus one of his match-worn shirts, signed by the player himself. Furthermore, they will get two tickets to see the captain play, either for Italy or his domestic club, Juventus.
The NFT collection also includes 25 editions of The Leader. This artwork depicts the Italy captain tackling a gladiator, with the Roman Coliseum in the background. 100 editions of The Captain and 1,000 of The Icon complete the collection.
