Gianluca Vialli has been suffering from pancreatic cancer for a year. He says he has two goals: he doesn't want to die before his parents and intends to lead his two daughters to the altar.
A class act through and through. Hardly surprising if you see where he grew up.
Unfortunately I think it is unlikely he will recover. I believe pancreatic cancer has a very poor prognosis as it is and he has been battling it for years now. All the best to an incredible legend of a player and of a man.
