A Serie D soccer player has been suspended by his club, Nibionno Oggiono (Lecco), for using sexist insults on Facebook to attack Agriculture Minister Teresa Bellanova of Italia Viva, who has been campaigning for the regularization of agricultural workers. The unfavorable "protagonist" of the incident, reported by some media, is 29-year-old soccer player Davide Castagna, a striker for the Lecco team, who posted defamatory content targeting Bellanova. His club immediately distanced itself from the incident and issued a statement. "In expressing its sincere sympathy to the minister, ASD Nibionno Oggiono, reiterating its complete non-involvement, clarifies that the comments were made by the player exclusively in a personal capacity and that the club itself considers itself the injured party and therefore reserves the right to take legal action against him for the damage to its reputation." The club, upon learning of the situation, immediately took action, suspending Castagna. "The player," the club statement reads, "was immediately suspended from competitive activity."
