That would force them to find a new candidate or the CONI to put the FIGC under administration.

“I am appalled by the statement they have made,” Zamparini said. “They are a bunch of fools.

“They also tried to include me. Urbano Cairo and Andrea Agnelli telephoned me but I sent them to hell!

“This operation disgusts me, they should be ashamed. Trying to overturn a majority by using power is shameful.”

Cairo responded today on news agency ANSA.

“Leaving aside the insults, which from Zamparini are like a medal of honour, I want to remind him that he wanted to sign the letter on Monday.”
