Lorenzo Insigne Tattoo’s
As with many modern-day footballers, tattoos have become very popular and regularly seen on today’s players. Furthermore, Insigne is famed for having ink over most of his body, including his arms, legs and torso.
The most noticeable tattoo is the full leg sleeve with a Maradona memorial design on his thigh, paying tribute to his childhood hero. This design is stunning, with his jersey number 24 tattooed on the back of his calf as the design blends into one big sleeve.
Another unique tattoo that has made headlines from Insigne is the stick family design on the back of his neck. It looks like what can only be described as a children’s drawing, something that would decorate a fridge. The story behind it is still unknown. However, we presume it has something to do with his children.

Lorenzo Insigne Cars

Other luxury cars in Insigne’s collection are the Mercedes AMG GT63, along with a Ferrari 458. With cars that can go from 0 – 60mph in less than 4 seconds, there’s no surprise that he is a speed demon off the pitch, matching his style of play on the field. Its estimated his car collection is around €1 million alone.
Final Say
From analysing Insigne’s sporting career, with his continuous growing earnings at S.S.C Napoli along with his Adidas endorsement deal, we believe Lorenzo Insigne’s net worth to be €35 million. However, 2022 may see a further increase for “Magnifico”, with other big clubs knocking on his door for his final peak years.
