Arianna Fontana visits San Siro

A true legend of Italian sport, a champion who continues to write unique and thrilling chapters in history: Arianna Fontana was welcomed by San Siro during the pre-match build-up to Inter vs Genoa.

At the beginning of February, Arianna had already taken centre stage at the Meazza, serving as Italy’s flag bearer during the Opening Ceremony of the 2026 Winter Olympics. The short track superstar experienced unforgettable Games: after leading the Italian team into the stadium, she went on to win three medals. A gold in the mixed relay and two silvers, one in the individual 500m and one in the women’s 3000m relay.

Those results firmly cemented Fontana’s place among the greats of Italian sport. Since 2006 Winter Olympics, she has competed in six Olympic Games, winning at least one medal at each edition. With the three medals claimed at Milano-Cortina, Fontana reached a total of 14 Olympic medals, surpassing the historic record of Edoardo Mangiarotti and becoming the most decorated Italian Olympian of all time.

Now, almost a month after the Opening Ceremony, Arianna, a passionate Nerazzurri supporter, returned to San Siro, where she was presented with a personalised Inter shirt by Vice President Javier Zanetti and warmly welcomed and applauded by the Inter fans.
