Bonucci heartbroken by Astori death but Milan ace knows some lights never fade out

The Italy international was devastated by the news that his friend had passed away at just 31 but he believes he is now in a better place

Ahead of kick-off at San Siro on Thursday night, Leonardo Bonucci will put on his usual playlist, which always ends with the song 'Faded' by Alan Walker.

The repeated refrain 'Where are you now?' will resonate with Bonucci even more than usual, with the AC Milan captain having been left in a state of shock by the sudden death of his Italy team-mate and good friend Davide Astori on Sunday.
