Serie A team Monza said he would remain in hospital for two to three days. “After the difficult time we had yesterday, my family and I would like to say that thankfully we are doing well and we would like to thank everyone for the kind messages of support that we have received,” Mari wrote on social media with a picture of himself in a hospital bed.
Monza chief executive Adriano Galliani said Mari would not return to training for around two months and that the club had asked that Monday’s match with Bologna be postponed as “the team is in shock.” “Everyone in the team cried last night, they all wanted to visit him but we couldn’t,” Galliani told reporters outside the hospital. Mari was one of several people attacked in a Carrefour supermarket in Assago, on the outskirts of Milan in northern Italy, by a man apparently suffering from psychological problems.
