Fiorentina donate €1.5m to Astori family

By Football Italia staff

Fiorentina donated €1.5m to Davide Astori’s family after his tragic death last year, their accounts show.

Astori died during his sleep on the eve of Fiorentina’s Serie A match against Udinese in March 2018.

The Viola released their accounts for the 2018 financial year on Friday, which showed they had set up a trust fund worth €1.5m for the defender’s family.

However, they made a loss of €15.7m – as opposed to their €37m profit the year before – due to a sharp drop in revenue (€110m from €189m).
