8/01/2014 GOOD LUCK ACERBI and WEAH'S GESTURE

A thought for former defender Francesco Acerbi ahead of Sassuolo-Milan.


MILAN – Milan’s remarkable fight-back last season, which ended with the Rossoneri finishing third in the league table, is often a subject of discussion in light of the club’s current situation.

For many, that comeback started at Napoli last season when Milan overturned a 0-2 deficit to draw 2-2. On the pitch that day from the first moment to the last was Francesco Acerbi.

Influential on and off the pitch, and remembered fondly as an honest and reliable person during his time with the club, the current Sassuolo defender had a testicular tumour removed in July but has recently confirmed a cancer relapse.

However, Acerbi did receive a pleasant surprise this week after a phone call from his idol George Weah.

The defender sent a message via twitter to Weah to wish him a happy new year and Weah responded by giving his support and encouragement.

A fantastic gesture by Weah and which will have been appreciated by Acerbi who is going through the biggest fight of his life right now.

Saturday February 15 2014 Acerbi: 'Pain is temporary'

Sassuolo defender Francesco Acerbi explained why he’s training during chemotherapy. “Pain is only temporary.”


The former Chievo, Genoa and Milan player celebrated his 26th birthday this week, but is fighting a relapse of the testicular cancer that had already been diagnosed in June.

Despite going through a course of chemotherapy, Acerbi can still be seen jogging at the club’s training ground.

“I stop and think that pain is only temporary,” wrote Acerbi on Twitter today.

“I never stop training because I know that soon I will be back on the field with my team.”

A testicular tumour was discovered during a routine medical over the summer, as blood tests showed some irregularities.

It was removed with surgery, but Acerbi then failed a doping test in December, showing elevated levels of a hormone that is created by tumours.

Whereas doctors had opted only for an operation the first time round, the relapse pushed them to advise a course of chemotherapy.

I love this kind of attitude

Pain indeed is temporary

I hope he recovers quickly and reaches his potential as a footballer he is really a good player but seemed very timid/cautious while playing for us. I'd still take him before Mexes or any of the CBs we have right now.

Yeah no. I do feel sorry for the lad but he was a very poor defender, particularly for us. I am sympathetic towards him cause of what he has been through but he is a terrible cb and players like him dont belong to milan. Neither does current mexes btw or zapata either. They are all trash.

“I am very happy, as I did not expect this.”

“I think Conte rewarded me for what I am doing on the field. I reached the Nazionale thanks also to my teammates and I think it is a starting point."

“The Nazionale was certainly an objective, but at this moment I have above all been focusing on working day by day to be ready each Sunday. The call arrived and I am very happy.”

“I know what Conte evaluates: hard work, determination and hunger. You always have to be focused, he doesn’t give you anything for free and that’s how it should be."

“I certainly don’t want favouritism after what happened. I work hard, train every day to improve and always give more than 100 per cent, so I am satisfied with myself.”


Grande ACE :star: :proud:
