Inter president Giuseppe Marotta spoke to Sky Sports following the definitive interruption of the match between Fiorentina and Inter Milan, on the Artemio Franchi pitch. This match on the 14th day of the Italian championship took a rather dramatic turn after a quarter of an hour of play. In fact, Viola midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed on the field. According to the first information filtering from Careggi hospital, Edoardo Bove is awake and conscious. The 22-year-old breathes independently. He now remains under surveillance by hospital staff.
“The leaders of Fiorentina went to the hospital. I spoke with Daniele Pradè (fiorentina sports director, editor’s note) recently, I am here to provide support on behalf of Inter, to the world of football, to the family, to Fiorentina. The decision was spontaneous, in the face of a fact that we hope is not serious. We are a community and when situations like this happen, all players and the referee must be involved together. It was a spontaneous decision to postpone the match. We haven’t touched on the subject of the calendar, the focus and thoughts go to Bove first. Tomorrow we will evaluate what are the situations related to recovery“.
