A club statement read via Football Italia:

"A lifetime on the ring before well-earned retirement, with a couple of electrifying comebacks. A spotlight in the Hall of Fame. Sparkling crowns of titles around his neck, even more impressive than a pride of lions. The aura of a hero, both for these and past generations, rests on shoulders that speak for themselves. Ladies and gentlemen, here’s The Undertaker. Yes, it’s really him, posing with the jersey after that playful wink, the 'follow' nudge, aimed at Genoa’s Instagram channel. Some people live seven lives in one, and he has the blessed nickname of ‘The Undertaker’."

What's next for Genoa?

Fans are hoping the new kit brings a much-needed boost, with Genoa currently sitting in 17th place in Serie A, just two points above the bottom.

After the international break, they’ll return to action at home against Cagliari, per Goal.
