Columns: Team | No | Player | Pos | Career | Notes
Milan | 3 | Paolo Maldini | Left back , Centre-back | 1984-2009 | The shirt was not fully retired . Maldini has given consent for his sons to adopt the number 3 shirt if either of them play professionally for the club | Roma | 6 | Aldair | Centre-back | 1990-2003 | The shirt number had been retired by the club when the player left the club in 2003 . When Kevin Strootman joined Roma in 2013 , he asked for permission to wear number 6 . The club approved the request after Aldair gave his consent | Slavia | 7 | Stanislav Vlček | Striker | 2004-2007 , 2009-2013 | Rather than retiring the number , the club opted to freeze the number for any future player that wants it , provided that the applying player meets 7 game achievements . Among those are scoring 3 goals overall against Sparta , being nominated for his national team , winning the trophy for top goalscorer and others . Even though Milan Škoda met the requirements in 2016-17 season , he opted to keep his number 21 . The 7 was eventually given to Danny upon him joining the team for 2017-18 season . Vlček gave his consent and Danny pledged to work to meet the remaining criteria | Argentina | 10 | Diego Maradona | Midfielder | 1979-1994 | The number 10 had been retired by Argentine Football Association in October 2001 to honour Maradona . Before the 2002 World Cup , the AFA submitted a squad list of 23 players for the tournament , listed 1 through 24 , with the number 10 omitted . FIFA rejected Argentina 's list , and the governing body 's president , Sepp Blatter suggested the number 10 shirt be instead given to the team 's third-choice goalkeeper , Roberto Bonano . AFA ultimately submitted a revised list with Ariel Ortega , originally listed as number 23 , as the number 10 . The number 10 has been worn by other players since , most notably by Lionel Messi , whom Maradona considers his successor | Dunfermline Athletic | 4 | Norrie McCathie | Defender | 1981-1996 | The club retired the number after club captain McCathie was found dead in his home on 8 January 1996 , as a result of Carbon Monoxide poisoning . At that time , Scottish League clubs used shirt numbered from 1 to 11 , so for the remainder of the 1995-96 season , 12 was used instead . However , the number was not retired permanently , and has been re-issued since | Livorno | 10 | Igor Protti | Striker | 1985-1988 , 1999-2005 | In December 2005 , Livorno officially retired the # 10 jersey . However , Protti , who led the forward line and captained his side in two promotions from Serie C1 to Serie A , quickly gaining a reputation as a fan favourite , announced his willingness to see the # 10 number reissued to another player , in order to give anybody back a dream to dress it one day . This was made effective starting from the 2007-08 season , in which Francesco Tavano played with the # 10 number | Exeter City | 9 | Adam Stansfield | Forward | 2006-2010 | The club retired the number 9 for nine seasons after the striker died of cancer on 10 August 2010
