Andrea Pirlo is the footballer you all wish you were.
He makes his own wine, has great fashion sense, and can boast a better head and face of hair than you could ever dream of.
Oh, and he's even inspired a new beer.

The Italian maestro is about to embark on his second full season as a New York City FC player, and his first without midfield partner Frank Lampard after the Englishman
retired from the game.
And a new MLS season means a new NYCFC home kit, which Pirlo has been good enough to model this week.
Don't let the apparent mope fool you, he's clearly extremely excited about it all. I mean, why else would he have announced it in all caps?

In fact, based on the club's own promotion of the new home shirt, it seems there was a directive for its players not to smile in any promotional materials.
Still, Tommy McNamara looks to be straining really hard not to let out a little smirk.

If you were wondering why the kit has what looks like a French flag on it, by the way, it's because that's not a French flag - it's the flag of the city of New York.
The club have called the new kit 'a true homage' to the city, and have broken it down
here.
