“The election of Andrea Agnelli, which I congratulate him for, confirms Italy’s leading role in international football,” Tavecchio told ANSA.
“It represents a well-earned personal gratification. I’m sure he’ll do his best to cover such a prestigious job, and, as the head of the ECA will make a valuable contribution to the promotion of Italian football in Europe and around the world.”
