Luigi De SiervoCEO of Serie A, spoke as follows on the sidelines of the presentation event of the Italian Cup final underway in Rome: “This is not just a match, but a real event that has grown thanks to the participation of past champions and a great celebration of Italian football. This is what we propose: this year the first Serie A Festival will start in Parma, with over 30 different panels, the aim is to get closer to the public.”
A thought on Atalanta, an extraordinary team that amazed everyone:
“Extraordinary, I am very happy with the results they have obtained in Italy and in Europe. The new format of the Italian Super Cup will see the participation of four teams which we now know are Inter, Milan, Juve and indeed Atalanta: therefore a showcase that it stops at tomorrow’s match or the Europa League final.”
Juve is one of the teams that has expressed discontent towards president Casini:
“I think the thing has already been clarified and overcome. The protagonists have already overcome that misunderstanding, we are a united League and we always have been. From the outside we are told things that don’t belong to us.”
Government agency, have you received any clarification?
“The positions were well expressed by the president, the situation will be changed and mitigated in a more confrontational logic and therefore I believe that a shared path can arise from this”.
The rescue teams objected:
“It’s an outdated rule, the games that were played at the same time were first four, then three, then two and then one. It’s an outdated fact, you can’t all play together, it’s physiological. We tried to respect a series of rotations, I don’t see anything strange about it, it’s a discussion that happens every year, only the teams change.”
