I missed Andrea. He was one really good Left Back & i always use to say that he was going to be the next Maldini. He also was a great person off the pitch!

RIP Andrea

Andrea Fortunato, always in our hearts
Juventus.com



A kind, well-mannered lad. A player of undoubted talent and unquestionable integrity. A warm smile, snatched away from us 18 years ago by the cruel hand of fate. Andrea Fortunato left us on 25 April 1995, not yet 24, having lost his battle with leukemia.

But that smile of his remains etched in our memories because it never deserted him, not till his dying day. And that's a lesson for us all.

It's almost as if Andrea wanted to teach us, with his smile, to live life and all its battles as serenely as he did; to remind us that it's OK to lose battles sometimes, but you must never, ever, feel beaten.

And for that we thank you, Andrea. We'll never forget the example you set.
