Ciro Napoli 1Napoli recently held an ‘Evening for Ciro’ at the Stadio San Paolo in honour of fan Ciro Esposito who passed away this year.

Esposito was the fan who sadly died in June as a result of injuries he sustained at the Coppa Italia final when watching his side take on Fiorentina in Rome the previous month.

The moving ceremony took place before Napoli’s home friendly against Greek side PAOK.

Both captains laid flowers in his memory before the game.

Pictures from the occasion are below:
