(ANSA) – ROME, DECEMBER 03 – “I am pleased that the others have finally noticed it. The first investigation on this topic dates back to four years ago. Research that we have recently re-proposed with FifPro: the top players play more 70 games a year, of which 50 with less than four days of recovery. There is no doubt that we cannot continue like this. “
Thus the president of the Aic, Umberto Calcagno, returns to the theme of too dense football calendars.
“We are all aware of the fact that the added value on an economic level can only be given by certain types of competitions – continues Calcagno, speaking to Radio Punto Nuovo -. But we must not chase big events and, above all, we must distribute resources more equitably. , to avoid excessive concentrations of wealth. Sporting merit must be taken into account, safeguarding national competitions “.
“We will move to find the right solutions: at the beginning of last season we asked, for example, that the Serie A squads be extended, adding three more units, as Uefa did for the European Championship – says the # 1 again. Aic – Unfortunately there has been closure by the Lega. The new president of Fifpro will soon have meetings on the subject, work tables will be set up to discuss it. There is finally a perception of what is happening – he Calcagno concluded -: I am convinced that the matches will decrease, unfortunately not in the very short term, given the existing contractual commitments linked to the TV rights of the competitions “.
