Ciao. Need some help reading an Italian book about my hero Javier Zanetti. I am reading a book, mostly pictures but there are a few text extracts, but the introduction is very difficult for me to translate. I have come across a word that I can find no reference to in my Italian dictionary or online. It is 'imbolsimenti' Javier Adelmar Zanetti ha 40 anni, l'eta dei primi imbolsimenti e dei capelli radi, ma da quell'estate del 1995 in cui sbarcò a Malpensa, è cambiato pochissimo. I read it as: Javier Zanetti is 40, the age of the first (imbolsimenti?) and thinning hair, but since that summer of 1995 when he first landed at Malpensa, he has changed very little. Any help would be really appreciated and I am looking for someone to speak and converse with who can help me improve my Italian and I in turn help them with their English. Grazie Matt

Thanks for the response. What is the full sentence trying to say, I still don't understand it completely? Javier Adelmar Zanetti ha 40 anni, l'eta dei primi imbolsimenti e dei capelli radi, ma da quell'estate del 1995 in cui sbarcò a Malpensa, è cambiato pochissimo.
