Nicolò Zaniolo’s sister published pictures of insulting and threatening messages towards his brother written at her school in La Spezia.
Zaniolo was introduced in the second half of Roma’s 1-0 win against Spezia on Sunday and earned a crucial late penalty kick converted by Tammy Abraham.
La Spezia is where Zaniolo was born and raised and his family still lives there, as his father Igor played for the club.
His sister Benedetta, 17, had a terrible reception the day after the match as she found offensive messages towards her brother written on the bathroom walls of her school.

Zaniolo was called ‘traitor’ and ‘little man’ and there were a few threatening messages that read: ‘Zaniolo, we’ll beat you up any time we want’ and ‘Be careful, Spezia does not forget.’
Benedetta shared the pictures on Instagram, writing her own comment: ‘I think you are the little men, get treatment for hate and envy. I feel sorry for you.’
Queste sono le scritte apparse sui muri della scuola di Benedetta Zaniolo, sorella minore di Nicolò.
Fate schifo.

Please proof read the article. Come on, this is a serious website, it should be ore professionally presented.
Azurro FAn, my thoughts exactly! My initial reaction was to reach out to them and ask if they need help with proof-reading their English articles. I had noticed, time and time again, numerous spelling and grammatical errors.
Anyway, the onus is on them if they want to improve on that aspect.
Second sentence. Should be “her” brother, not “his” brother.
