Custom date translation problem

Hi!

Trying to translate a custom field date into my local language.

$unixtimestamp = strtotime( get_field('data_evento') );
echo date_i18n( "l d F, Y", $unixtimestamp );

This code correctly returns the output in my local language, but it is designed to use the local current date.

Instead, this other code is what I am currently using to display the custom dates in English:

if(get_field('data_evento')){
$datetime = DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/Y', get_field('data_evento'));
$data_giorno = $datetime->format( 'D');
$data_giorno_num = $datetime->format('d');
$data_mese = $datetime->format('M');	

I need help merging the two codes… custom date + date_i18n = ?

Solved by myself.

<?php echo date_i18n( 'D', strtotime(date_format($datetime, 'D'))); ?>

Not sure how to close this post now.
