Ex-member of the Piedmontese club, he announced on December 15 that he was ending his sporting career at the age of 26. He has recovered from a brain tumor that he has been battling for three years.

He will have given everything. While he has been fighting the disease for three years, Simone Muratore finally announced that he would end his professional career on December 15, after having managed to overcome the brain tumor that affected him. The Italian midfielder announced it via an Instagram post. He returned to this painful ordeal during which he “had to relearn how to speak well, walk, run, write, read, count, it was as if I were a child again and I had to start all over again, from on day 0.”

Passed by Juventus (2019-2020) and Atalanta in particular (2020-2023), the Italian international hopeful (1 selection) discovered his illness in 2021 when he was on loan to Tondela, in Portugal. He subsequently underwent an operation, during which he was “afraid I would never wake up again.” Although the Italian tried by all means to come back, he ended up understanding that he was “no longer the same as before”, giving up trying to put on his crampons again.

And ends this press release in the most beautiful way: “Life is a wonderful gift”.
