Football fans were left in awe as DAZN presenter and social media sensation Eleonora Incardona lit up the screen ahead of Napoli vs. AC Milan.
The 34-year-old, dressed in cream trousers, a sleek brown top, and a stylish leather jacket looked every inch the superstar as she reported live from the touchline. And, of course, she didn’t miss the chance to share a few dazzling pitch-side snaps on Instagram, much to the delight of her 1.2 million followers. The compliments came flooding in, with fans calling her “stunning,” “amazing,” and even “an angel in a land of monsters.”
From Miss Italia to Football’s Favourite Presenter
Eleonora’s journey to football fame has been nothing short of spectacular. Back in 2010, she competed in Miss Italia, showcasing her beauty on the national stage. But instead of staying in the modelling world, she carved out a career in sports media, landing a gig with Sportitalia before DAZN recognized her undeniable talent. Now, she’s not only a key figure in Serie A coverage but also a regular presenter for Champions League fixtures.
For Eleonora, football is more than just a job—it’s a passion. Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, she shared her love for working pitch-side:
“The stadium is something special for me. The opportunity to be close to the action, to study the details, to understand what is happening by listening to the voices of the protagonists, gives something extra that is difficult to explain.”
A Love Story on and off the Pitch
It turns out that Eleonora’s connection to football is full circle as she’s also dating Torino and Italy midfielder Samuele Ricci. The 23-year-old star has already made waves in Serie A and earned several caps for the Italian national team. Talk about a football power couple!
