On the day of his funeral in the cathedral of Vicenza, while the whole country cried for the goodbye to Pablo Rossi, his house in Bucine, in the province of Arezzo, in the Tuscan countryside, was looted. Upon returning from Vicenza, his wife Federica Capelletti, with their two daughters, found the ensuing chaos after a robbery, with everything turned upside down, damage and destruction. They did not even respect the rooms of the two girls: Maria Vittoria, 11 years old, and Sofia Elena, 8. “More than a robbery it has been a desecration,” Corriere wrote.

The first to notice the robbery was a collaborator of the Rossi family, who found a broken window, which motivated his suspicions and called the police. The thieves entered through the window, looking for jewels and trophies of the champion known affectionately throughout the world as Pablito. They took a Paolo Rossi watch and a hundred euros, but not your sports memorabilia. To find out exactly what was taken, Rossi’s wife is expected to do a more detailed inspection of the house, which is located in the center of a farmhouse, with a beautiful view overlooking a valley.

The hero of the 1982 World Cup in Spain said that he had realized the dream of his life here, because he rediscovered his roots and “the pleasure of cultivating with passion and love the products that only the land of Tuscany can express”. This was his retirement, after leaving football, although he did not abandon the sport that gave him glory, because he created a school for children and was a commentator on Sky, Mediaset and RAI. A simple and humble person, of great sympathy and generosity, he had decided to spend the rest of his existence in this agroturismo, with 85 hectares of forests, vineyards, olive and fruit trees, cultivated and cultivated plants respecting their natural balance.

The news has caused consternation in the country, because, as the Corriere has written, «more than a robbery it was a desecration», Because at that time the funeral of someone who is a legend for all of Italy was being held.
