Get ready for a special appearance at Sanremo – Edoardo Bove, the young midfielder from Fiorentina, will take the stage at the Ariston during the final night. He will share his story of the sudden illness that struck him during a match against Inter.
The Incident
During the first half of the Fiorentina-Inter game on December 1, 2024, Bove experienced a health scare. The match was temporarily halted as he was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery. A subcutaneous defibrillator was implanted in the former Roma midfielder, and he has not played since.
Bove at Sanremo
Carlo Conti revealed in a press conference before Sanremo that Bove would be present. “He immediately agreed to my proposal,” the host disclosed. “It will be wonderful to have a 22-year-old on stage sharing his experience.” Bove, who chose not to accept any payment and will appear at the Ariston stage for free, will perform a song and deliver a message about his journey. A heartfelt gesture from the Appio Latino midfielder who faced a life-threatening situation on the football field.
