The side of the national team and Roma worked tirelessly to be found at the top after two complicated months. The support of the family, with the ex-dancer wife in the head, and personalized workouts were decisive
The last two months of Leonardo Spinazzola. The Roma full-back played just 45 ‘against Cagliari and 37’ against Manchester: then, both before and after, he has always been stopped due to muscular problems. At one point he was afraid of losing the European Championship but he went under and worked every day, before Trigoria and then to Coverciano, to present himself against Turkey in the best possible way and this has been seen on the pitch.
LIFE AS A PROFESSIONAL – In these two months Spinazzola has been almost a soldier. He trained consistently, he went to bed early to recover as soon as possible, he was attentive in detail to every detail of his diet to try to prevent those injuries that have slowed him down too often in his career. With him Miriam, the love of a lifetime she married at Christmas, and her two children Mattia, aged three, and Sofia, born a few months ago. Spinazzola trains with them when he is at home: with his wife he shares the personal trainer (Carmine Menna). And then the dentist (Daniele Puzzilli) who with a custom-made bite is helping him in his posture is fundamental in his recovery, as he said playing a few months ago.
THE FAMILY – However, for Leonardo, it is also fundamental to be part of a family of sportsmen. In fact, apart from a few months off for pregnancies, his wife Miriam is a fitness enthusiast and a former dancer, having been dancing for many years, with training even five times a week. Little Mattia, on the other hand, plays soccer with dad, but for now his parents have signed him up for swimming. Even during the lockdown, the Spinazzola family has always remained on the move even though Leonardo, over time, has been forced to modify the way of working several times precisely to support a physical structure that is sometimes too fragile. This is why for him the preparatory work before and after training with his teammates, physiotherapy and everything he does at home to try not to stop anymore. For Mancini today and Mourinho tomorrow.
