Yesterday, one day before his 52nd birthday, Alberto Rivolta has died, after a 25 years long battle against a rare and terrible disease, spinal cord ependymoma.
He has only played 7 matches with the Inter jersey, one of them in the record season 1988/89, but he was a nerazzurro through and through and will always and forever be part of the nerazzurri family.
Inter.it remembers him with these words (https://www.inter.it/en/news/2019/11/03/remembering-alberto-rivolta.html):
FC Internazionale Milano is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Alberto Rivolta. Born in 1967 in Lissone, Rivolta, a former defender, came through the Nerazzurri’s youth ranks at the beginning of the 1980s and made his debut for the First Team against Como in Serie A on 15 December 1985.
Over the course of his stay at the Club between 1985 and 1987 and then during the 1988-89 season, he made a total of seven appearances. The most memorable one was no doubt his outing on the penultimate matchday of the '88-'89 campaign, meaning he became one of the players to feature in that heroic, record-breaking Scudetto-winning side.
The Club, in remembering Rivolta’s courage when fighting his illness, expresses its deepest condolences to his family and friends on behalf of the whole Inter family.
