Edoardo Bove Progresses After Cardiac Arrest

Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove is recovering well after collapsing during a Serie A match against Inter Milan last Sunday, leading to a hospitalization and subsequent transfer to a coronary care unit. The club's general manager, Alessandro Ferrari, confirmed that Bove is no longer in intensive care and is progressing positively, expressing gratitude for the support from fans and teammates. A scheduled operation to fit a defibrillator is set for Monday, although Bove will not be able to play in Serie A while having this device. Fiorentina showed solidarity for Bove during their recent Coppa Italia match against Empoli, with fans and players displaying supportive messages. Reports indicate he could leave the hospital shortly after the procedure, pending his recovery. Bove's situation is reminiscent of Christian Eriksen's experience during EURO 2020.
