Udinese vow to care for tragic Morosini’s sister

The parent club of Italian footballer Piermario Morosini, who died during a game on Saturday, will take care of his disabled sister, according to its captain Antonio Di Natale.

Morosini, 25, was on loan at Livorno when he collapsed and died during a clash with Pescara on Saturday. Udinese have confirmed plans to look after the player’s only remaining family member, his severely disabled sister.

Morosini’s sister relied on him for financial support following the death of their parents, and Di Natale has assured that Udinese will now look after her.
