Gianluca Vialli's death on Friday robbed Italian football of an iconic figure of its golden era
His glittering club career saw him at one point become the world's most expensive player when Juventus paid Sampdoria €16.5 million in 1992 and he ended his career with one final successful spell at Chelsea.His bustling style of forward play belied his comfortable upbringing and led him to the greatest heights at club level.
In eight years at Sampdoria, Vialli won the club's only Serie A title in 1991, the previous year's Cup Winner's Cup and three Italian Cups. "It was a club that had exciting plans ... even if this was before Abramovich. There was already the idea within the club of winning the league," Vialli said in 2016.
In his final campaign as a player he led Chelsea on a title challenge that only faded in late April, and in 2000 won a second FA Cup before being replaced by Claudio Ranieri in the following season. At the height of his powers, he flopped at the 1990 World Cup on home soil, shoved aside early on to make space for Roberto Baggio and Toto Schillaci, and his Italy career never recovered.
