Bove, 77 days after the illness. Now (the Viola fan) Carlo Conti wants him at Sanremo
Fiorentina-Inter starts again from the 16th minute, the one in which immediately after Lautaro Bove's goal he collapsed to the ground. Edoardo on the stage at the Ariston? He's thinking about it, even if he never wanted too much fuss around him after his illness last December 1st
Edoardo Bove seeks normality after his illness on December 1st
Florence, February 5, 2025 - Sixty-seven days later he will still be there. This time not on the pitch but a little further away. For Edward Bove the one of tomorrow night It won't be a game like any other. We'll start again Fiorentina-Inter from the 16th minute, the one in which - immediately after Lautaro's goal was disallowed for the ball going out for a throw-in - collapsed to the ground between the feet of Calhanoglu and Dumfries. A lot has changed since then. Edoardo has taken his life back into his own hands after the moments of terror he experienced on the night between December 1st and 2nd. A city with bated breath, marked by similar tragedies not too far away.
Edoardo has left again. About ten days in Careggi, the implantation of the subcutaneous defibrillator. There is time to think about returning to play. Not in Italy and not even in the national team. The rest we will see, There has already been some contact with the agent from foreign clubs. Now the rest counts, side by side with mister Palladino and his staff. At Viola Park everyone loves him very much. He is studying, tactics and more. His life off the pitch is back to how it used to be. With his partner Martina. They live together in the heart of Florence, right in the center, where affection overwhelms them every time they leave the house. During the Fashion Week Milanese brands have snatched him from their hands to parade on the catwalk. In recent days he has been in Rotterdam to support his brotherly friend Flavio Cobolli, making his debut in the Dutch tennis tournament. But there's more. It has been rumored for days that Carlo Conti is courting him to participate in the Festival of Sanremo next week. Footballers have often been the protagonists. He could be one too, he's thinking about it. After the malore he wanted to return to normality quickly, he hoped to have little media hype around him. Participation in Sanremo would go against the trend, but Conti (a well-known Viola fan) is pushing.
Tomorrow evening instead it will be there, in bench. Next to whoever will take the field. He is almost always the last to take his place together with Palladino's match analysts. He is precious, he knows what needs to be done on the field. Until December he did it in an excellent way. He spoke at length with Folorunsho, now it is Beltran who is benefiting from his advice. He will not be able to play the cursed match again. But being there, next to his teammates, is already a great success for everyone.
