(ANSA) – FLORENCE NOVA, 01 APR – “His greatness was to anticipate the times: Artemio Franchi today is more modern and current than ever, he is one of the most beautiful components in the history of this city and for Italian football he remains the number one innovator. He will help us get back on track “. Francesco Ghirelli said this today when he presented the demonstration that from tomorrow until Monday 4 April will take place in Florence for the celebrations of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the former FIGC president who died at the age of 61 in 1983 in a road accident.
“I would not have wanted this conference to be held a few days after the second consecutive exclusion of our national team from the World Cup – continued the president of the Lega Pro – but for this very reason now we need to work to restart and relaunch Italian football by leveraging its teachings. It is necessary to start from some elements, for example if there are still few people who can be called up by the Italian national team, you don’t go anywhere, therefore you need state-of-the-art infrastructures and also involve the school system. In Coverciano lies one of the points of excellence on which to work. .
As for the legislation that favors the return of capital to Italy, it is clear that it cannot be valid for young players, it applies to those players who bring quality, like Ronaldo. In the decree that will soon be discussed in Parliament, it will have to be discussed. And from this point of view – Ghirelli-Franchi concluded – he gives us a hand because he was able to weave well the relationship between Europe, the world and Italy, we need to be far-sighted “.
