Tomorrow will be an important day for Italian football. The president of the Lega Serie A Lorenzo Casini will meet the Minister of Sport Andrea Abodi to discuss the government’s involvement in sport in the form of a supervisory agency for the accounts of professional clubs. The number one of the League will arrive at this match not in the best conditions because Inter, Juventus, Milan And Rome they actually decided to distrust him with a letter: here she is.
“Dear President, following yesterday’s informal meeting, we would like to represent the following to you. During the meeting, reference was made on several occasions to positions represented by you in institutional bodies based on the document approved by the LNPA Assembly on 14 February. Our societies did not approve that document, nor its contents. We therefore ask you, starting from tomorrow’s meeting with the Minister of Sport as well as in any other institutional context in which you will represent the positions of the Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A based on that document, to clarify in advance that these are positions that are not shared approved by our Clubs“.
The reason for the dispute is the reform not passed on the reduction of Serie A with 18 teams: these are the only 4 clubs to have voted in favor. The League’s response comes through theHANDLE: “ SI also specifies that the meeting concerns only the topic of the Government Agency proposal on which all the clubs, without exception, have expressed their opposition“.
