Tomovic: 'We'll meet again, Astori'

By Football Italia staff

Nenad Tomovic sent a heartfelt message to Davide Astori. “We’ll meet again for another glass of wine. I hope you’re waiting when my time comes.”

The 31-year-old died in his sleep last night as Fiorentina were preparing for a Serie A match against Udinese.

Tomovic was Astori’s teammate with the Viola and joined Chievo this season.

“Davide, my friend… there’s little I can say,” wrote Tomovic via the official Chievo website.

“You were a special person. It was an honour to play by your side. It was an honour to be in your company.

“Davide, you were one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever met. I’ll just tell you that we will meet again and have another glass of wine together!

“I would really like for you to be waiting for me when my time comes. Especially you. Your friend, Nenad.”
