Inter Milan Organize First Aid Initiative For Squad After Recent Health Emergencies During Matches | OneFootball

Inter Milan have organized a first aid course for the squad after a couple of recent health emergencies during matches.

This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that Nerazzurri team doctor Piero Volpi has led the initiative.

The last few weeks have seen two dramatic health emergencies during Inter matches.

The most high profile was the collapse of Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove.

The Italian international’s loss of consciousness brought a halt to the match between La Viola and the Nerazzurri. The match was postponed for 2025.

Bove was, fortunately, able to recover. However, it was a highly distressing incident for both teams’ sets of players as well as the fans.
