FIGC President Gabriele Gravina has confirmed that “the idea is to restart Serie A on May 20 or early June. Scrapping the season would be a grave injustice.”
With the coronavirus pandemic in Italy showing signs of peaking, Gravina is confident football in Italy will resume sooner rather than later.
“The top priority is completing the season,” he told TMW Radio.
“The idea is to start from May 20 or early June, to end in July. There’s even been talk of August and September.
“I’ve made it clear that I’d hate to take the risk of compromising another season to save this one.
“The solution of playing at neutral venues isn’t a good one, but it’s an idea we’re working on. We’re trying to find four or five destinations.”
The 66-year-old reiterated his plea for the campaign not to be scrapped, claiming it would be a ‘grave injustice’.
“I think scrapping the season would be rather complex. It would be a grave injustice, which would lead to a legal emergency during an epidemiological one.
“Only the Scudetto would need assigning and Juventus themselves, I believe, have expressed a dislike of such of a solution.
“A summer in court wouldn’t be an act of great responsibility.”
