FIGC President Carlo Tavecchio warned “only five clubs could register for Serie A” if financial limits were imposed properly.

Every summer at least one club is declared bankrupt and the most recent serious casualty was Parma, who just gained promotion back into Lega Pro last week.

“We must do everything to ensure there are stadiums without barriers,” said Tavecchio.

“We must do everything to ensure there are stadiums without barriers,” said Tavecchio.

“There have to be rules, that if someone steps on to the field, he gets sent to prison. That’s all there is to it. Violence is an enormous problem, but the reason behind it is the lack of sporting culture and adherence to rules in Italy.

“Just think that if we applied the rules strictly, only five clubs could register for Serie A.

“Everyone already knows my idea on this, which is reducing Serie A to 18 teams, 20 in Serie B and Lega Pro as two groups of 20 clubs.”
