Sports pitch to be named after Morandi Bridge victim Samuele Robbiano

On Thursday 9 May at 18:30 CEST, the Campomorone sports pitch – which has been renovated by UC Sampdoria – will be renamed in honour of Samuele Robbiano, the young Samp fan who died at the age of eight along with his mother Ersilia and father Roberto in the Morandi Bridge disaster in August 2018.

The ceremony will ensure that the memory of Samuele – who used to play on the pitch – will live on, while providing countless other youngsters with a place to enjoy sports.

Sporting director Carlo Osti and Doria vice-captain Dennis Praet will attend the ceremony, as well as the mayor of Campomorone Paola Guida and relatives and friends of Samuele.
