Cagliari Calcio extends its warmest wishes to all members of the healthcare team for the new sporting season.

The Club would like to extend a heartfelt and profound thank you to Doctor Marco Scorcu, who concludes his career with the rossoblù after over thirty years of activity. A professional of absolute value, he represented an essential point of reference for generations of footballers, coaches and managers, standing out for his competence, dedication and extraordinary human qualities. Over the course of his long experience he has been able to guarantee the highest standards in the management of every health aspect, accompanying the team with great attention in both treatment and prevention, always putting the health and well-being of the athletes at the centre. The Club’s most sincere gratitude goes to Doctor Scorcu for the contribution offered over all these years and the best wishes for the best personal and professional satisfaction.
