AKIPRESS.COM - Sassuolo forward Antonio Floro Flores has adopted an abandoned newborn baby on the train, BR-UK reported.

The baby was found stashed in a bag underneath a train seat on a trek from Naples to Avelino. When Sassuolo heard the story and that efforts to find the child's parents were unsuccessful, he decided to adopt the baby, who is named Francesco.

“After seeing the profile of little Francesco, we followed what our hearts told us,” he said on Twitter, via Football Italia. “Before being a player, I am a father. I'm certainly not a hero! We are going through the regular procedures.”

Flores is already the father of three children.
