ROME (Reuters) - Atalanta youth team player Andrea Rinaldi, who was on loan at Serie D side Legnano, died on Monday after suffering an aneurysm, the two clubs said.

"Andrea Rinaldi, our warrior, has left us," said Legnano's statement. "An aneurysm snatched him in the prime of life, with a life ahead of him and with a career that promised bright goals. A sudden and shocking tragedy, impossible even to imagine."
