Young midfielder Edoardo Bove from "Fiorentina" successfully undergoes an internal defibrillator implantation at Careggi hospital following an on-field incident.

Midfielder Edoardo Bove of "Fiorentina" underwent surgery to implant an internal defibrillator.

Recall that the 22-year-old athlete collapsed on the field at the 17th minute during an Italian championship match between "Fiorentina" and "Inter" on December 1st. He was immediately taken to a nearby hospital in Florence, where Italian media later reported a cardiac arrest.

On Monday, it was announced that the player would receive a removable device at the Careggi clinic in Florence, where he has been since the incident. According to the latest updates, the procedure was successfully completed this morning.

It was noted that the implant is removable, meaning Bove and his medical team will decide whether to keep it permanently or remove it later.
