Tragedy in Tottenham.

The English club announced today (Thursday) the sudden death of fitness coach Gian Piero Ventrone at the age of 61. Ventrone was a key figure in Antonio Conte's coaching staff - nicknamed "The Marines" and joined the club in November 2021 when his Italian friend became head coach.

"We are devastated to announce that fitness coach Gian Piero Ventrone has died," a statement from Tottenham said. This sad and impossible."

Last summer, Ventrona's work received major media coverage around the world when Tottenham players were seen collapsing on the pitch in exhaustion during a routine team training session in South Korea.

Harry Kane was caught kneeling and vomiting, in a picture that stood out among the harsh scenes.

The credit for the arduous training was given to Ventrona, who also came with the Londoners to Israel for the friendly match against Roma before the start of the season.

A truly remarkable man.

I'm devastated by the passing of our coach Gian Piero.

My love and strength is with his family at this time.

His words and wisdom will live on with me for the rest of my life and I'm just grateful I had the opportunity to spend time with him.
