Bove’s return to football remains difficult to envision | OneFootball

Edoardo Bove’s return to the field remains a delicate and unresolved issue.

As confirmed by the Minister of Sport Andrea Abodi, the issue is being evaluated, with meetings planned between the Italian Sports Medicine Federation and other competent bodies.

Meanwhile, from England, there are signs of a possible alignment with the Italian management of similar cases.

The Premier League is evaluating a possible change in the rules.

Currently, in England, players with a subcutaneous defibrillator can choose to continue playing by taking the risk themselves.

However, recently, there have been contacts between the British football authorities and the FMSI to evaluate a more restrictive approach, similar to the Italian one.

The main obstacle for Bove is not only the rules, but his clinical picture.

According to Il Messaggero, in addition to the rules, the central point remains the evaluation of the previous heart conditions that led to his cardiac arrest. This aspect will require further medical investigations, regardless of any regulatory changes.
