“This is a decision I was waiting for with great satisfaction,” said the Bianconeri director.
“It’s the right choice. Having such a long transfer window creates turmoil, a well-run club succeeds by planning out a transfer campaign.
“The transfer market has to be limited, you can’t have players moving when the leagues have already started.
“Our Lega Serie A must now address the FIGC, with a strong opinion arriving from all the clubs.
“The decision is for the Federation, but all the major leagues have to be in line.”
