FIGC President Gabriele Gravina warns Juventus will be excluded from Serie A next season, if they don’t withdraw from the Super League.
Juventus, Real Madrid and Barcelona are the only clubs not to have officially withdrawn from the Super League, the breakaway project launched less than a month ago by 12 elite European clubs but collapsed within 48 hours.
The La Liga and Serie A giants released a joint statement on Saturday slamming ‘unacceptable pressures, threats and offences’ to abandon the Super League.
FIGC President Gabriele Gravina confirmed today the Old Lady won't be allowed to take part in the Serie A next season if they don't abandon the competition.
“When clubs accept to take part in the Italian league, they accept the principles of international bodies. It’s evident that if Juventus would not accept these principles they will be banned from the domestic league,” Gravina said at a press conference.
“I am sorry, I saw some worried fans this morning, but everybody must respect the rules,” he added.
“Nine clubs decided to withdraw from the competition [the Super League], there are three still involved. However, I hope this dispute will end soon.”
