A career slowed down by many injuries, but which made him loved by many fans. Now he could return to our championship.
There have been many footballers who over the last 40 years have been loved by the people of Fiorentina and who marked an era which still saw the club win little or nothing, but it certainly made the many Viola fans even more fond of him around Italy to their team.
In the same period of time in which Fiorentina managed to win only two Italian Cups and one Italian Super Cup, there was also a failure, the new company was unable to keep the name “Fiorentina” and which was forced to call itself “Florentia Viola”but above all it had to start again from Serie C.
Despite this, the Viola people have always been present alongside the team and in recent years they have been enjoying the rebirth of Fiorentina, thanks above all to the work and investments of President Rocco Commisso and to the ideas of Vincenzo Italiano on the bench who managed to bring the team back twice to a European final and to the Italian Cup final, but lost them all.
The last few months have been really complicated. The death of Joe Barone, CEO loved by all fans, the players and staff, the Conference final lost in the last minute of extra time against Olympiacos and the separation from Vincenzo Italiano who decided to accept Bologna’s proposal. In his place the bench will be entrusted to Raffaele Palladino.
Fiorentina, here are the most loved champions
Returning to the last forty years of Fiorentina, however, There were so many champions who entered the hearts of all Viola fans. Starting from the huge numbers ten that marked different eras. From Antognoni to Roberto Baggio, up to Manuel Rui Costa. Then, again, how can we forget Gabriel Omar Batistuta, perhaps the best footballer in the history of the Tuscans.
Among these much loved champions there was certainly also one Stevan Jovetic who wrote important pages in Viola history. However, the Montenegrin has recently given great displeasure to his former fans who venerated him so much in the past with his Olympiacos. Despite winning the Conference League, however, Jo-Jo will leave the Greek club.
Jovetic, Como attempts a coup
The red and whites are trying to convince him to stay, but having not reached the minimum number of appearances to trigger the automatic renewal, Jovetic will be released on June 30th and will remain free from July 1st. His dream would be to return to Florence, but the Viola don’t seem to be interested.
To want his return to Italy, however, it’s Cesc Fabregas’ Como who wants to attempt an impressive coup to give to their fans in view of their return to Serie A. The class of 1989 is no longer the same as when he was at Fiorentina and the many injuries have affected his career, but the class remains intact and the return to Italy is his number one wish .
