FLORENCE, Italy<\/span>, June 20, 2024<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0The Members of the Board of the Fair Play Menarini Foundation, Antonello Biscini, Valeria Speroni Cardi<\/span> and Ennio Troiano<\/span>, are delighted to welcome another champion to the roster of 2024 award winners.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Award Jury has added a global football legend, striker Samuel Eto<\/span>‘o, to this year’s list of winners.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Voted best African football player of the century in 2007, Eto’o has stamped his mark in Cameroon’s<\/span> footballing history, winning a gold medal at the Olympics in 2000 and two African Cups in 2000 and 2002. He is still his country’s all-time leading goal scorer with an impressive 56 goals.<\/p>\n

He cemented his place in Europe<\/span> as one of the best strikers in modern football. When playing for Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona<\/span> side, he won three La Liga titles and two Champions League Cups. With Jos\u00e8 Mourinho’s Inter side, he played a decisive role in 2010, winning the Italian League, Coppa Italia and Champions League. He is the only player to have won two consecutive Trebles (top-tier league title, primary national cup and Champions League) with two different teams (Barcelona<\/span> in 2009 and Inter in 2010).<\/p>\n

In 2021, he was appointed President of Cameroon’s<\/span> Football Federation. Throughout his career, he has been known for his social commitment with the Fundaci\u00f3n Privada Samuel Eto’o, founded to provide help to young Cameroonians. Samuel Eto<\/span>‘o has always been on the frontline in the fight against racism in football, epitomising the values of ethics, loyalty, and respect of the Fair Play Menarini International Award.<\/p>\n

Eto’o and the other stars of the 28th edition will take the stage of the Roman Theatre in Fiesole on Thursday, July 4 during the awards ceremony.<\/p>\n
