CONI (Italian Olympic Committee) chief Malagò had an informal meeting with the 20 top flight clubs in Milan this evening.

“It was a constructive and positive meeting with a cordial tone,” said Malagò.

“I explained the genesis of this decision to put the Lega Serie A under commission and the choice of Bernardo Corradi.

“I do not intend to call a formal assembly until we have found some certainty of resolving the main issues: statute and governance with relative names. There will be another informal meeting on March 5, with the objective of then calling a real assembly on Monday March 19.

“I have my own ideas on a new President and proposed Gaetano Miccichè, a man of sport who is also reliable, but I don’t know if he is ready to accept. Nobody said no to this idea.”

Miccichè has a history of restructuring businesses and is the current President of the Banca IMI financial institution.

He comes from a famous family, as his brother Gianfranco is a politician and their sibling Guglielmo is Vice-President of Serie B club Palermo.
