Ghirelli, Italian football is far from recovery objectives

(ANSA) – ROME, June 23 – “Twelve million presidents paid in Serie C companies to recapitalize them and adjust them to a liquidity index set at 0.7% (the same for Serie B), against 4.3 million , about a third, paid into the coffers of Serie A clubs to face the championship with an index equal to 0.5%. Apart from the disproportion, it is clear that an Italian football that matures every year the frightening deficit of 1.3 billion and which refuses to adapt even to an index of just 0.5% is far from those recovery and sustainability objectives which are an essential prerequisite for its relaunch “. This was stated by the president of Lega Pro, Francesco Ghirelli, after all the clubs have applied to register for the Serie C 2022/23 championship.

“The Serie C presidents, despite the current difficulties and with an admirable effort, have laid the foundations for a future without imbalances in the Lega Pro championship – continued Ghirelli -. I thank them because with their entrepreneurial action and with a concrete sacrifice financially have given reputation to football that is good for the country and credibility to the dream factory. It will be my responsibility, on the competent institutional tables, to have tangible recognition in favor of Serie C clubs “.

The Governing Council, which met today, certified to the federal commissions the correct fulfillment of the obligations, the verification of which is the responsibility of the Lega Pro, by the 60 companies entitled to participate in the Series C 2022/23.

The process for obtaining national licenses now provides for the completion of further obligations. Upon completion of the preliminary investigation, the Federal Council will determine the teams admitted to the championship. (HANDLE).
