“Yesterday a really stern electronic mail arrived from UEFA and FIFAby which they invite us to place strain on the Authorities authority to reverse this measure that violates the autonomy of sport”. Thus the president of the FIGC Gabriel Gravina throughout the listening to earlier than the Chamber of Deputies Tradition Committee on the sports activities, college and analysis decree, relating to the creation of thecompany for the financial and monetary supervision {of professional} sports activities golf equipment wished by the Authorities.

“Covisoc has stricter guidelines”

“The Fee is just not agile and is governmental, moreover we don’t see the necessities of urgency of the regulation as a result of Covisoc doesn’t comply with the Olympic four-year interval and the registrations for the following championships have already been made. It’s a regulation that violates the rules of autonomy of sport and market economic system”, Gravina then recalled. “There’s a hole within the decree – he continued -. The Covisoc has two duties: the primary is to examine that skilled golf equipment have the correct economic-financial necessities for the needs of registering for championships. Whereas the second, which we discovered no hint of within the decree, is the continual management throughout the season of funds of emoluments and contributions. Our checks, however, are bimonthly. This can be a elementary management and in gentle of this, 494 penalty factors have been utilized to golf equipment. Our guidelines are extra stringent than these of the sports activities decree”. Gravina then reiterated how Covisoc has labored brilliantly throughout its life and recalled the way it was born in 1987. “Since that day – added the number one of the FIGC – there have been 193 exclusions, solely two circumstances have been accepted by the Tar and by the Council of State”. Lastly, talking about prices, he concluded: “Covisoc prices the FIGC 400 thousand euros in complete, in comparison with 3.5 million euros from the Fee, of which 1.9 by the FIGC and 1.6 by the golf equipment”. To those that communicate as an alternative of the indebtedness of varied soccer golf equipment, he specified that debt is “an establishment foreseen available in the market economic system”, subsequently “I imagine that the indebtedness of some corporations is partly additionally because of the software and compliance with authorized rules”.

“It’s absurd to not enable Malagò a fourth time period”

“The restrict on phrases is a strategic error,” Gravina added. “In our nation the place democracy is practiced, chewed over and cultivated, the themes should resolve. So let’s create the circumstances in order that there might be the proper functions of some rules. Simply as it might be absurd to think about not recognizing a fourth time period to a President of the Coni which right now has given a turning level to Italian sport. We’re all comfortable and content material to see the blue triumph like by no means earlier than. Resetting the method of constructive evolution right now would solely trigger hurt to the world of sport”.

“Goal and incisive sporting justice on Juventus”

Gravina additionally commented on the capital beneficial properties affair that led to heavy sanctions in opposition to Juve: “Juventus was convicted of 1 offence and plea bargained for one more, as additionally supplied for by odd justice. Plea bargaining can also be supplied for within the sports activities justice code. For the primary offence, it was sentenced to fifteen penalty factors, then the Assure Board requested a evaluation. For the second, it requested a plea discount. It’s a regular truth. The truth that sports activities justice has had a extra incisive impact than odd justice is demonstrated by the truth that there are investigations nonetheless being carried out by odd magistrates, whereas sports activities justice has already exhausted its path. We’re incisive, speedy and I imagine goal within the software of our guidelines”, concludes Gravina.
