Fiorentina fans, due to natural disasters, ask to postpone the match with Juventus

Storm Kyran, which has left the United Kingdom, has passed through Europe and is currently raging in Italy, particularly in the Tuscany region, where six deaths have already been confirmed.

The fans of Fiorentina have requested the postponement of their match against Juventus, scheduled for Sunday at the "Artemio Franchi" stadium, as Florence has also been significantly affected. The mayor of Florence had previously announced that the game would proceed as scheduled, and Serie A has agreed to observe a minute of silence in memory of the deceased.

Fiorentina's ultras, known as "Curva Fiesole," released a statement expressing their belief that holding the match at this time is inappropriate.

"A part of our city is on its knees, homes are destroyed, lives are in tatters, and while it is raining, people are thinking of playing a game on Sunday as if nothing has happened.

Curva Fiesole firmly and categorically requests the postponement of the match so that energy and resources are directed solely towards our people who are struggling, rather than hosting a sporting event.

We demand respect for the victims, their families, those who have lost everything in just a few hours and now feel abandoned, without electricity and surrounded by water."

In addition to their statement, Fiorentina's ultras have taken measures to assist those affected by the flooding. They have organized a series of locations that will serve as collection centers for supplies, which will then be distributed to people living in the inundated areas. Furthermore, they are gathering gloves, shovels, buckets, and other equipment so that when the authorities give the green light, they can physically help with the cleanup.

With just over 48 hours left until the match, authorities will soon have to decide whether to proceed with the game or postpone it.
