Serie A, because Juventus, Milan, Inter and Roma have rejected president Casini

Inter, Juventus, Milan and Roma have effectively disqualified the president of the Lega Serie A, Lorenzo Casini. The tear was made through a letter, on the eve of the meeting of the top executive with the Minister of Sports, Abodi (in which we will talk about the Government’s project for an authority to control the budgets of professional clubs)

Furthermore, in the past months the four clubs had voted for the reduction of Serie A from 20 to 18 teams, a change in format that had not passed given the other clubs’ votes against or abstentions.

“Dear President, following yesterday’s informal meeting, we wish to represent the following to you. During the meeting, reference was made on several occasions to positions represented by you in institutional settings based on the document approved by the LNPA Assembly on 14 February. Our clubs have not approved that document, nor therefore its contents, 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 founded. on that document, to clarify in advance that these are positions not shared and approved by our Clubs”.

Serie A, the reply: “The proposals carried out with everyone’s mandate”

Lega Serie A sources responded remotely to Inter, Milan, Juventus and Roma. The proposals to obtain greater weight and autonomy for the Serie A League “are carried forward on the mandate of all the clubs”, and the document approved by the Assembly “has never been publicly represented as voted unanimously”. The same sources recall that “since the day of the meeting in which it was presented, it was immediately said that only 4 teams had abstained from the vote, due to their opposition only regarding the point relating to the 20-man championship formula and 18 teams”.

On the rest of the document, the League of A underlines, “on the contrary, there was sharing and contribution from all the clubs in its drafting. The same document also represents the basis on which, upon mandate from all the clubs, the proposals are being carried forward to obtain the greater weight and autonomy that Lega A has been demanding for some time.” As for Thursday’s meeting with Minister Abodi, “referred to in the letter, it is also specified that it concerns only the topic of the government agency proposal on which all the clubs, without exception, have expressed their opposition”.
