Mussolini's great-grandson says ‘my name has never caused me problems' after Serie A transfer
Romano Floriani Mussolini, the great-grandson of fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, said he wants to focus on football and not his family name after joining Serie A side Cremonese on loan. The versatile 22-year-old, who primarily plays at right-back but also on the right-side of midfield, has joined the newly-promoted club on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy from his parent club Lazio. Advertisement The footballer, who is also the son of Italian politician Alessandra Mussolini, said at his introductory press conference on Wednesday that he is 'here to play football' and reiterated that his surname 'bothers other people more than me.' 'My surname has never caused me any problems and, from my point of view, the less said about it, the better,' Mussolini said, in quotes carried by Italian press agency Ansa. 'I'm here to express myself on the pitch, nothing else'. Mussolini spent last season on loan at Juve Stabia in Serie B, the second division of Italian football, and scored his first goal in December. During the goal celebration, the stadium announcer called out his first name, 'Romano', seven times, with dozens of fans responding by chanting 'Mussolini' and appearing to give fascist salutes. After that incident, Juve Stabia denied those were the gestures in a statement: 'When the name of the scoring player is announced, we raise our arms to the sky as a sign of the team that is in our heart and which represents the city. This was once again the case with this (Mussolini's) goal.' Mussolini said that controversy was 'pointless' and said that he mainly talks about football, not politics, with his family. 'But I'd like people to talk about me only for how I play,' Mussolini added. 'I want to show what I can do and prove my value.' Mussolini's father was Mario Floriani, a police officer, who alongside his mother agreed that their son would have two surnames — Floriani and Mussolini — of which he could choose which to use first when he became an adult. Mussolini's mother said the Italian civil and church authorities had both agreed to this as an exception, as it was not until 2022 that Italy's top court ruled that children will be given their mother's and father's surnames at birth, with the previous practice of only giving children their father's surname 'constitutionally illegitimate'. During his time at Juve Stabia, Mussolini opted to use 'F. Mussolini' as the name on the back of his shirt. Mussolini previously played in the youth system at Roma before joining city rivals Lazio, while he also spent 2023-24 on loan at Pescara in Serie C. ()

Juve Stabia Sporting Director Confirms Interest In Inter Milan Youngster: 'Can Give Us Quality'
Juve Stabia sporting director Castel Di Sangro has confirmed the club's interest in Inter Milan youngster Giacomo De Pieri. During his latest interview via FCInterNews, Di Sangro named the 18-year-old a concrete target for Le Vespe. Giacomo De Pieri joined Inter's youth academy in 2020 when he was only 13. Fast forward five years, and he seems ready to embark on a senior career. Indeed, after an impressive 2024/25 season with the Primavera, the young winger could leave San Siro. De Pieri made 44 appearances for Inter's youth team, racking up an eye-catching 11 goals and nine assists. Furthermore, he came on as a late substitute in Inter's 3-0 win over Monaco in the Champions League. Therefore, his rapid development has not gone unnoticed. Juve Stabia Chief Confirms Interest in Inter Milan Teenager Giacomo De Pieri Alongside Thomas Berenbruch, De Pieri is among Inter's most highly-rated young prospects. Moreover, his contract at San Siro runs until 2029, and the Nerazzurri have no intention of selling him. However, it's time for the young gun to start gaining experience at a senior level. As such, Inter are open to letting him join Juve Stabia on a season-long loan without a buyout option. Talks are in advanced stages as De Pieri prepares to sign a contract at Stadio Romeo Menti. 'He is a player we are monitoring, along with others, because he can bring us quality,' Juve Stabia sporting director Di Sangro confirmed. Additionally, the same report, originating from Il Mattino, goes as far as to say the deal could go through next week. Therefore, De Pieri could soon join Ignazio Abate's side for pre-season training. Despite sanctioning his transfer, Inter will probably try to keep other up-and-coming talents at the club next season. Indeed, the U23 team, featuring Berenbruch and others, will compete in Serie C in 2025/26.

Benito Mussolini's great-grandson is set to play in Serie A this season - after fans performed FASCIST salute to mark first goal last campaign
The great-grandson of Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini will play in Serie A next season after completing a transfer move. Romano Mussolini, 22, has signed for newly promoted club Cremonese on loan from Lazio, where he has not yet made an appearance, with an option to buy. The full-back has previously had loans at Pescara and Juve Stabia in Serie C and Serie B but will now get his shot at the big time. His full name is Romano Benito Floriani Mussolini, though he actually insists on taking the surname Mussolini, not Floriani, and says he has no interest in politics. Mussolini's background is certainly the subject of some baggage - when he scored his first professional goal last December, fans responded by performing the Roman salute, which was frequently adopted by his great-grandfather. He put his finger to his lips while celebrating but fans chanted his name and performed the salute nevertheless. Romano Floriani Mussolini, the great-grandson of Benito Mussolini, scored his first professional goal to lead Juve Stabia to a 1-0 victory vs. Cesena in Serie B. This is how the fans reacted. — Zach Lowy (@ZachLowy) December 22, 2024 The gesture, which involves extending the right arm straight with the palm facing down, is associated with fascism and was frequently performed by Benito Mussolini. Benito Mussolini, who founded and led the National Fascist Party, was the Prime Minister of Italy from 1922 until 1943. As a youth player, Romano Mussolini spent time at Roma's academy before joining Lazio in 2016. He was previously named on the bench for Lazio in various competitions but has yet to make his competitive senior debut for the club. Both Watford and Udinese were reported to be interested in his services, but instead he will serve Cremonese as they look to record a better stab at Serie A than in 2022-23, when they suffered an immediate relegation in 19th place. The youngster, who plays as a right-back or right wing-back, is the third child of Mauro Floriani and politician Alesssandra Mussolini.
