"I expected a great welcome given the affection of the Sardinian fans, but it went even further," confessed Achille Polonara , who went up to the press room to talk about his return to Sassari after treatment and a bone marrow transplant to fight acute myeloid leukemia.

Not a courtesy visit, but a transfer as a player who will also resume training as soon as conditions allow. "I've been coming here regularly, with my family. Now we're looking for a school for our children and then we'll get back to our normal routine."

Polonara has returned to the team. And not just because he and his teammates were on hand to sing the national anthem at the start of the match. "Now I'm part of Dinamo and I'll start experiencing the locker room. Something I certainly wouldn't have thought of two months ago, once I came out of a coma."
