Inter and EstrelaBet are launching an exclusive realistic collectible statue of the eternal top scorer wearing the number 9 jersey. The collector's item, developed in detail by Memorabília do Esporte, portrays Fernandão in a memorable moment of goal celebration, wearing the uniform alluding to the one he wore when he won the world championship.

Made of polystone resin, hand-painted and in a 1/6 scale, the statue is approximately 27 centimeters tall. Only 500 units will be available, each accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The pieces can be purchased for R$2,006 (USS326) on the Memorabília do Esporte website.

Fernandão is one of the greatest idols in Internacional's history and the legacy he left for the club is something that will last forever. Being able to provide this event is a way of honoring him and bringing moments of joy to the fans' memories”, says Renan Cavalcanti, CMO of EstrelaBet, Internacional's sponsor since 2022.

"An idol on and off the field, Fernandão deserves all the tributes. Now, Inter and EstrelaBet are joining forces to further immortalize the great achievements of the eternal captain in the fans' memories. Much more than a decorative piece, the statue aims to move the fans of Colorado during this time that is so significant for all of us," highlights Lucas Butier, the Club's Business Manager.

 


A collector of great achievements, Fernandão left his mark on the Rio Grande do Sul team by winning four state championships, a South American Recopa, a Libertadores and a Club World Cup. The Internacional idol died in 2014, at the age of 36, in a plane crash in the state of Goiás.
