Lugano, who played for Sao Paulo from 2003-2006, re-signed for the club during the January transfer window. During his first stint, he led the side to a domestic title, the continental Copa Libertadores, and the 2005 FIFA Club World Cup.
You can see why he's so well-regarded among the club's supporters.
