Fears are growing over the health of Gianluca Vialli after the Italy and Chelsea legend was admitted to a hospital in London for treatment for pancreatic cancer.
Gazzetta dello Sport has reported that Vialli’s 87-year-old mother Maria Terea has flown to England to be by his side. Vialli, 58, left his role as the head of the Italy delegation last week to undergo treatment.
The ex-Sampdoria striker took the role to work with his close friend and former team-mate Roberto Mancini. The two celebrated Italy’s Euro 2020 triumph together at Wembley last summer.
