On its official website, Juve wanted to remember the passing of Andrea Fortunato with a touching message: “It is difficult to explain what meaning this day has for each of us. April 25, for thirty years now, for the Juventus family is a day of remembrance. It is the day when, dear Andrea, we cannot help but think of you even more intensely. You taught us what it really meant to fight, on the green rectangle and, above all, in life. On the field you never gave up: on the left lane you covered hundreds and hundreds of miles with the number 3 on your back. Your dedication led you to be Juventus’ starting left-back at age 23 and to make your national team debut.”

“Your dream, however, dear Andrea was broken too soon by a cruel fate. A fate that confronted you with too difficult a challenge, but you never lost hope and your strength of spirit, once again, confirmed the wonderful person you were: even in the most complicated moment you were the one who used words of comfort with those who were always by your side, from your family to your teammates, you were the one who wanted to stand by the team in the most delicate moments of the season. The same team that wanted to dedicate the 1994/1995 season Scudetto to you. It is since April 25, 1995, that you have been gone. We miss you tremendously, and so it will be forever, but today all together we want to remember you with a smile and, above all, we want to remember you with your wonderful smile, indelible in our memories. Hello, Andrea,” the HCL club concluded. Meanwhile comes a sensational market announcement: Lookman-Juve… <<<
