Abstract: By analysing journalistic pieces related to the biographies of "naturalised" athletes, this ar-ticle highlights the cultural assimilation functions attributed to sport proposed in two majorItalian newspapers during the 2016 Olympics. Indeed, the recurring narrative structures identified in the news underline how the Italian sporting field is characterised by a func-tionalist public discourse, which still tends to represent foreign athletes from a post-colonial perspective.
