Lega Pro chief Gabriele Gravina has been confirmed as the only candidate running for the FIGC’s presidency.

Several leading publications, including Gazzetta dello Sport and Gianluca Di Marzio’s website, report no other applications were submitted before Sunday’s deadline.

Consequently, Gravina [pictured, left] is set to go unchallenged in the election on October 22, with the FIGC expected to formalise his candidacy ‘soon’.

It comes after Lega Serie A President Gaetano Micciche stated ‘there’s the possibility’ of supporting his fellow administrator.

Ex-Inter owner Massimo Moratti had also opted against putting his name forward, despite reported backing from Juventus’ Andrea Agnelli.
