Reports of the death of renowned football agent Mino Raiola have been denied by several credible sources.
A large number of world media outlets have reported, based on several reports from Italy, on the death of the Italian-Dutch agent.
But these claims seem to have been poorly confirmed, as sources close to agent Raiola have denied the claims, saying that he is in serious health but continues to fight for his life.
The Head of the Anesthesia and Intensive Care Unit of San Raffaele, Alberto Zangrillo, comments on the rumors about the health condition of agent Mino Raiola, admitted to the San Raffaele hospital, where he underwent a delicate operation for lung problems.
"I am outraged by the phone calls from pseudo journalists who speculate about the life of a man who is fighting," Zangrillo told the Italian news agency Ansa.it.

In this post Romano says that "The news you may have seen about Mino Raiola's death was false and denied by the agent."
