Protti, US Livorno: ‘Igor was Livorno, both on and off the pitch’

Florence, 19 June (LaPresse) – “There are people who belong to a team. And then there are people to whom a team belongs. Igor was Livorno. He was Livorno on the pitch, off the pitch, in good times and in bad. Today we say goodbye to a man who has left a mark that time will not erase. No grand words are needed. His name is enough. Farewell, Igor.” This is the farewell message that US Livorno 1915 has dedicated to Igor Protti, the striker who, wearing the amaranth shirt, gave Livorno’s fans moments of great footballing joy.
