ROMA — The document for the reform of controls on football clubs change. At the end of the meeting with the football and basketball leaders, the Minister of Sport Andrea Abodi has announced that it will present a new version of the text, forcefully rejected by all parties involved, next 20 maggio.
“We will create an Authority”. Thus, Abodi introduced himself. In fact, the first news is that the famous economic and financial supervision agency for professional companies envisaged by the document will change its name and nature. In fact, it will no longer be one of the government, but an independent authority. However, in Abodi’s opinion, the appointments will always be of a political nature, and even if he did not specify more, this remains a huge critical issue. For the rest, Abodi made amends. He said the draft revealed by Republic it should not have been released before it was final (but it was he who disseminated it to the sports bodies) and explained the urgency with which it will be brought to the council of ministers at the end of the month with the fact that that reform will be included in a broader sports decree , with measures that justify it due to their urgency. but he didn’t take any steps back. Only, he took his time. But football doesn’t fit in and Gravina informed the minister of the fact that Uefa e Fifa they sent a letter on May 8 in which they showed great concern and asked for urgent explanations to be received by next Monday.
For the FIGC of Gabriele Gravina “This new reality is in clear contrast with the absolute prohibition of political interference in the regulations and activities of the FIGC, enshrined in the articles. 14 and 15 of the FIFA Statute, which all Federations must comply with, under penalty of possible sanctions. To this, taking into account that the activity relating to the checks of professional clubs and admissions to championships is subject to the careful supervision of CONI, there would also be the evident contrast with rule 24.6 of the Olympic Charter, which requires CONI to preserve their autonomy and resist any type of political pressure”.
Giovanni Malagò, n.1 of Coni, rejected the Authority hypothesis: “We must read carefully. It seems to me that the parties are willing to read and then meet again.” Then, on the hypothesis that CONI will appoint the members: “It is not in our interest to do so, we were the first to divest ourselves of a whole series of direct appointments . Everything must be verified according to the rules of the international world that regulate sport.” The number 1 of the Serie A league, Casini, added: “The Serie A League remains against the government agency which is an interference by politics and the risks of interference are always negative, but Minister Abodi has given time to discuss the corrective measures . He told us in advance that the rule will be changed and gave us time to talk about it and propose some adjustments. We as the League will talk about it in the assembly on May 15th. Dialogues are underway with UEFA and FIFA, but that is the federal president’s job.”
