AS Roma will try to give their all up to the Europa League final. These are the words of Daniele De Rossi who, today in a press conference on the eve of the match with Milan, responded to a terminally ill Roma fan. Edoardo, the name of the patient, had sent a message to the club asking to see Roma win the final in the Uefa competition. This last wish was expressed after contacting a clinic in Switzerland to access assisted suicide.
De Rossi's Words
The story has deeply moved both the coach and the club: «Beyond promising the victory, which I cannot do, I want to assure that we will give our all for that fan and for all the others. The issue has touched us and the club is trying to track him down, provided he wants to. We are also trying to talk to the radio station; we don't even know how to contact him, if he wants we are here. We respect his wish to remain anonymous, but if he wants, we are ready to welcome him».
The Message
Edoardo had called live during "Te la do io Tokyo", a radio program that talks about the Giallorossi, to which he had told his story. The decision came because of the quality of life, with the Swiss clinic having communicated only two available dates. One of these is precisely the 22nd of May, the day of the Europa League final in Dublin: «It's my last chance to see a final of my team».
