The club, on its Facebook page, shared a thought dedicated to the ex: « Mondo Verdeazzurro embraces the memory of a friend who passed away too soon and with whom joys, emotions, victories and defeats were shared. We want to remember you on the pitch with the shirt you have always honored and with your smile. Close to the pain of the Melis family, we greet you. Bye Lillino..."
