"What happened last Sunday has shaken us a lot, I am happy to say that the worst is over and we wish Edoardo to recover as soon as possible to continue his competitive career. We are talking about a potential pillar of the national team, I hope this dream can stay alive". These are the words of the president of Cagliari, Tommaso Giulini, pronounced Paulilatino, on the occasion of the Day of Sport: the thought is for Edoardo Bove, the Fiorentina midfielder taken ill in the early stages of the match with Inter.

"The relationship with Fiorentina," the rossoblù patron emphasized, "is very strong, we are very close to the Viola club. We lived through the Astori tragedy together: what happened to Davide is extremely similar to the Bove case. Luckily it happened in a football stadium, with an ambulance and a defibrillator nearby. Hence the utmost importance of having them on all pitches, so Edoardo was saved unlike Davide. These events tie us so much to Fiorentina, together with the recent death of Joe Barone following a similar problem: he was a modern, charismatic manager, who left us prematurely."

There was also space for statements on Cagliari fighting for salvation: "Ambition must always be there, we all must have it, me as president, the athletes, the fans. But first of all", Giulini clarified, "we must save ourselves and it is a guiding rule that we have always had, even when in 2019 at a certain point, before the advent of Covid, we found ourselves high up in the standings. Let's think about Atalanta: today they are among the candidates for the Scudetto and among the most structured to achieve it, but they know well that for the type of reality they are they must first of all maintain the category and then think about something else, and they never fail to remember this".

The crux of the new stadium: " Those who frequent Unipol Domus," explained the president of the rossoblu company, "know how good football is there. A stadium that we like but that is not enough, given that every time about ten thousand fans are actually outside because the capacity is just over 16 thousand seats. We hope to be able to realize the project of building a new stadium, with the contribution and support of the institutions, Government first and foremost, given that it is a topic that concerns the whole country. We presented a project," he recalled, "with all the trimmings now five years ago, which with the delays we know risks being already old. We need everyone's help, the Municipality of Cagliari has never abandoned us in this sense, so let's move forward."
