Italy legend Paolo Rossi will forever be remembered with the World Cup in his hands and now he’ll rest forever inside an urn shaped like the World Cup.

The striker died from a long illness at the age of 64 on December 9.

Following the funeral in his adopted town of Vicenza, there was today another ceremony in his home of Prato.

Wife Federica and their two daughters were in attendance, along with the son he had from his first marriage and his brother Rossano.

Jorginho’s agent assures he is ‘very happy at Chelsea, but wouldn’t rule out a return to Italy in future.’

The midfielder was born in Brazil, but spent his entire career in Italy and chose to represent the Azzurri at international level.

“Jorge is a Chelsea player and he is very happy there, but I wouldn’t rule out a return to Italy in future,” agent Joao Santos told Radio Kiss Kiss.

He is regularly linked with a move to Juventus, but also a potential return to Napoli.

Roma and Italy starlet Nicolò Zaniolo may only be 21, but he’s already accumulating a very complicated love life. 'When she told me that she was pregnant, I didn't feel ready.'

The talented trequartista has barely played over the last year following two serious knee injuries, but is targeting a place at the Euros next summer.

This week, he confirmed via social media that he has broken up with long-term girlfriend Sara Scaperrotta and started a relationship with Romanian model Madalina Ghenea.

Roma forward Nicolò Zaniolo claimed the Giallorossi can fight for the Scudetto this term. ‘We lack nothing’.

The Italy international has targeted a return from injury in April and said he will be back in time for Euro 2020, but he also spoke about the season so far and Roma’s possible battle at the top.

Roma forward Nicolò Zaniolo said he’s not ‘in a hurry to get back’ but the Italy international vowed to return ‘in time’ for Euro 2020.

The Italian midfielder picked up two different knee injuries in 2020, the first one on January 12 against Juventus in Serie A and the second one against The Netherlands in a Nations League match with Italy.

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Nicolò Zaniolo will resume training in Trigoria in the coming days using a special plastic protection to shield his injured knee.

The Italian midfielder picked up two different knee injuries in 2020.

The first one was in January 12, during a Serie A clash between Roma and Juventus.

The second one was on September 7, in a Nations League match between Italy and The Netherlands.

Italy CT Roberto Mancini believes ‘Juventus and Inter are on the same level’ and praises Ciro Immobile: ‘He is scoring incredible goals.’

Mancini commented on the Scudetto race during a press conference held by the FIGC on Monday.

“It’s a nice championship, with many teams within a few points. Juventus remain very strong, Milan are doing very well, Napoli are having a good season and the same is true of Roma,” Mancini said.

Inter full-back Matteo Darmian said it was ‘something beautiful and special to return home’ after moving from Parma to the Nerazzurri.

The former Milan youth returned to the fashion capital when he signed with Inter on October 5, moving back to San Siro after 10 years.

The former Torino defender has stints with Palermo, Torino and Manchester United during his career and has established himself as an important member of Antonio Conte’s squad at the Giuseppe Meazza.

Christian Vieri, Alessandro Del Piero and Daniele De Rossi are among the former players who started their path to become coaches today, attending the online course for the UEFA A licence.

The UEFA A licence course – that allows you to train up to Serie C – is being held online due to the pandemic and is reserved for professionals with long experience in the game.

Thus, the list naturally included a host of former players, ranging from World Cup winners to European Championship runners-ups with Italy.
