Fiorentina have confirmed that all of its squads, including the men\u2019s first-team, will play their next matches as scheduled despite the recent death of the club\u2019s President, Rocco Commisso.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fiorentina confirmed on Saturday that club President and founder of Mediacom, Commisso, has died at the age of 76.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The club have also confirmed that at the request of Commisso\u2019s family, and \u2018to honour the memory of the President\u2019, all upcoming matches will go ahead as scheduled. That means that the Viola men\u2019s first team will take to the field against Bologna at the Dall\u2019Ara at 14.00 GMT on Sunday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>Fiorentina has decided at the behest of the Commisso family and to honor the memory of its President to take the field in all scheduled sporting commitments,\u201d a statement from the club read.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor all those who knew him, football has always been his greatest passion and out of respect for this great love, the Fiorentina teams will honor his memory by playing for him on all fields.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On the pitch, Fiorentina are still sitting in the Serie A bottom three, in 18th place with 14 points from their first 20 matches of the season. They require a victory against Bologna, and for results elsewhere to go their way, if they are to draw level on points with Lecce in 17th this weekend. <\/span><\/p>\n
