Now there is a date, November 4. After the controversy over Italy’s elimination from the European Championships, the president of the FIGC Gabriele Gravina has decided to speed up the process for new elections, which will be possible after the end of the next Olympic Games. And today the call for the elective Assembly of the Football Federation arrived, followed by a note stating that it will be held at the Hilton Rome Airport Hotel in Fiumicino.

Yesterday Gravina, who has been at the helm of the FIGC since 2018, had already declared: “My mandate expires in 2025, we were already organizing the elections at the first available date. We will go to a democratic debate, that is the only place”. In practice, for the president it made no sense to think about resigning with new elections around the corner, better to speed up the process and have the federal components express their opinion as soon as possible on a possible new leadership.
