Giorgio Perinetti presents the book "What I Didn't See Coming" in Milan: great attendance and strong emotion

A deeply personal work, in which Perinetti retraces the most painful drama of his life: the passing of his daughter Emanuela, who died in December 2023 due to anorexia.

The presentation was held on Monday at the Mondadori bookstore in Piazza Duomo, the same place where the young woman lost her life two years ago. An intense and well-attended event, which brought together the worlds of football and publishing in remembrance of a story that touched many.

Alongside Perinetti and co-author Michele Pennetti, Sky Sport journalist Gianluca Di Marzio also spoke, moderating the meeting. Many prominent figures were present in the room:

the leaders of Cairo Editore,

the president of Lega Serie A, Ezio Simonelli,

the president of Inter, Giuseppe Marotta,

the former CEO of Milan, Adriano Galliani,

the coach of Olympique Marseille, Roberto De Zerbi,

various market operators,

the Neapolitan entrepreneur Antonio Fantini, always close to the Perinetti family.

An emotionally charged meeting, in which Perinetti shared his pain, but also the desire to turn a personal tragedy into a message of awareness and sensitization on a topic too often underestimated like anorexia.
