The consultative section responds to the FIGC’s request for clarification: it is not an act that cannot be deferred and therefore in a regime of ordinary administration such as the one the Federation is experiencing, it cannot proceed. We are moving towards new elections

The Hague will not be placed under commissionership. At least not for the moment. In the evening, the negative opinion of the Sports Guarantee Board at CONI arrived, which responded to this question posed in advance by the FIGC: is it possible to place the Association, left without a president after the dismissal of Antonio Zappi, under commissionership despite the fact that Gravina, the resigning president, can only intervene for the ordinary administration? The answer is no. Let’s see why.

the motivations

The College document is very detailed (it is 10 pages long), but in essence it is noted that although Zappi is no longer the president, there is a deputy vice-president (Francesco Massini) and a National Committee who can carry forward the work of the Hague. This is because Gravina is president “in prorogatio” and a commissionership in this situation does not fall within the non-deferrable acts that could be an exception in ordinary administration. Although the Association itself, more for a question of timing than necessity, had asked the FIGC for a sort of revolution to change the balance of a system which, by all accounts, is struggling, we are therefore moving towards new elections. There is no time for the new president to make technical appointments (designators, etc.), given that they are usually decided at the beginning of July. But Massini had anticipated it: “We are ready to go to the vote, I have the utmost confidence in this National Committee”.
