An American girl will donate her bone marrow for the transplant.

Achille Polonara himself revealed this in several interviews (Il Corriere di Bologna and the TV show Le Iene). The winger, signed a few weeks ago by Dinamo, will be hospitalized tomorrow for another round of chemotherapy and tests ahead of the transplant, which is expected to take place next week.

In the long and difficult journey to defeat leukemia, Polonara continues to remain positive and is grateful for the many demonstrations of affection not only from friends like Belinelli, Spissu and his national teammates, including coach Pozzecco, but also from the fans, both of the teams where he played (Varese, Reggio Emilia, Sassari and Bologna) and of those who had him as an opponent, even in the European cups.

Polonara reiterated how important the offer was to him to return to Sassari: "The goal is not just to get better, but to get back to playing."
