Fiorentina's Edoardo Bove Collapses During Match

Edoardo Bove, a midfielder for Fiorentina, collapsed during a Serie A match against Inter Milan just 16 minutes into the game, prompting its suspension. He was rushed to Careggi Hospital in Florence, where initial tests ruled out severe damage to his central nervous and cardio-respiratory systems; he remains under sedation in intensive care. The club indicated that Bove's condition will be reassessed within 24 hours, while family and teammates gathered to support him. This incident echoes past tragedies in football, notably the death of former Fiorentina captain Davide Astori in 2018. The match will be rescheduled, similar to a previous incident involving Roma's Evan Ndicka. Meanwhile, Napoli maintained their lead in the league with a 1-0 victory over Torino, thanks to Scott McTominay's goal.
