Hi everybody! Im a young cyclist who is currently going down from my brothers legacy that kinda ended in 2016. I am wearing his jersey that he got as a gift day to day when riding and i have a question about it, its super hard to find anything about it. I know its a castelli jersey used in World Championships in 2014 but theres a signature or something on it. If anyone can please give me an insight on what this is and what it means id be greatly thankful!

This unfortunately won’t help you much but I think the top part reads “Per sempre!” Which means forever in Italian. I think the bottom part is probably a rider’s signature but I wasn’t able to match it with the signatures I could find of the 2014 Italian riders in the world championships.
Edit: did some more research
I looked at some pictures and on a lineup of the women’s selection they all had the same text on their jersey. I am very sure the full text is Per sempre Alfredo. Alfredo Martini was an Italian coach who passed away in 2014 so it must have been some kind of tribute.
