The president of the FIGC, Gabriele Gravinaspoke yesterday at the meeting of Serie A League, putting his ideas for the football of the future on the table. All this as part of a path that could lead to the elimination of the right of veto granted to the individual components of Italian football in the absence of an overall agreement (even if Serie B has already said it does not want to give up).
«It is A’s right to decide the number of their teams“, he said Lorenzo Casini, president of the top football league. But this is not Gravina’s intention. Indeed, the head of the Football Federation has made some proposals and could increase the weight of Serie A in the federal assembly, currently equal to 12%.
A theme – he explains The messenger – which would be linked to the streamlining of the teams Serie C with the introduction of stricter parameters for registration and the blocking of repechages Amateurs. And with a sort of fusion between the Serie B League and the Lega Pro. It could also lead to a reduction in relegations in Serie B: no longer three certainties, but two in case of victory of the third to last of A with the third of B.
If this were the case, the total size of the economic parachute for those leaving the top division would decrease. Ideas considered interesting and white smoke cannot be ruled out. Now Gravina will send the government a strategic plan, created with the consultancy of Deloitte.
