Juventus general manager Beppe Marrotta has thrown his support behind outgoing Milan CEO Adriano Galliani becoming Lega Serie A’s next President.
Galliani is expected to be in the running for the presidency of the organisation that runs Italy’s professional football competitions, and Marotta believes the Milan veteran is perfectly qualified to take on the role.
“Galliani has a profile that absolutely fits In with the presidency of Lega Serie A,” he said at a Press conference concerning globalisation in football.

“Galliani has a profile that absolutely fits In with the presidency of Lega Serie A,” he said at a Press conference concerning globalisation in football.
“He has a wealth of experience, wisdom and expertise in the field of television rights and from a sporting perspective.
“There isn’t, however, at the moment a governance that can helps him. All 20 clubs must come together to decide, and the President must be accompanied by the powers of responsibility of autonomy.
“Starting next season on August 13? It’s normal for Ventura, having the fate of the national team at heart, to make this suggestion, but it clashes with clubs’ activities, both in terms of preseason and participation in international competitions.
“I understand Ventura’s idea, but I think there are some objective impediments.”
