October 28 – A Spanish player on loan from Arsenal was among those injured in a stabbing attack in a supermarket near Milan on Thursday in which one person died.
Defender Pablo Marí suffered a stab wound to the back but his injuries are not life threatening.
Marí joined Arsenal from Brazilian side Flamengo in January 2020, playing 19 times for the Gunners before moving on loan to Italian club Monza.
Monza CEO Adriano Galliani told Sky Italia that Marí had been shopping with his wife and young son when the attack took place.
“He had his son in a trolley and his wife next to him. He didn’t notice anything. He then felt something painful in his back, which was the criminal’s knife,” said Galliani.
“Unfortunately, he also saw the criminal stab someone in the throat. He saw everything that happened and it was deeply disturbing.”
