It’s not going to even begin to replace what a young family has lost however financial security or lack of is no small matter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle 53,557 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Heartbreaking tribute by one of the other players, Saponara Oh captain, my captain. Why did you not come down to have breakfast with us all? Why did you not pick up your shoes from outside of (goalkeeper) Marco Sportiello's room and then drink your orange juice, as usual? Now they will tell us that life goes on, that we must look forward and pick ourselves up, but what will your absence taste like? Who will arrive every morning in the cafeteria, warming up everyone with his smile? Who will ask us about what we did the previous night and have a laugh about it? Who will nurture the youngsters and give a sense of responsibility to the veterans? Who will form the circle to work on our 'two-touch play' and who will demolish Marco on the PlayStation? With whom will we debate about Masterchef, Florence's restaurants, TV series or games played? Who will I lean on at lunch after a tiring training session? Come on, come back. You still need to finish watching La La Land to analyse like you did with all new movies. Come back to Florence, they are waiting for you to renew your contract and acknowledge all the good and the positivity that you bring to us on a daily basis. Get out of that damn room, we will be waiting for you tomorrow at training. In life there are people you've known forever but have never bonded with, and then there are the 'Davides', who warm to you immediately with a simple 'Welcome to Florence, Ricky'. Wherever you are now, keep on defending our goal and enlighten the right path for us from the backline. Oh captain, my captain. Forever, my captain.

Usual papers with the sensationalist headlines It's similar in the UK mate. If a fit and otherwise healthy person suddenly dies they have to investigate it fully and do an autopsy etc. I don't think there's any suggestion there was foul play here.

RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Just now, johanhentze said: Touch of class even if its not ‘for life’. Apparently worth around a million a year so should help the family in some way. He had been due to sign the deal but it was postponed due to the weather so he never did. You would hope this is how clubs would react to such a tragedy. Saw a player on loan from Fiorentina, in Portugal, had to be substituted when he found out during a game. There seems to have been a genuine affection for him amongst his peers, something for the family to take pride in over the coming years.
