Ghirelli: 'Tax relief or block the C series'

"It is not a threat, I block the championship. I am calm and wise, but there is a limit to everything". It is the tough stance of Francesco Ghirelli, President of the Serie C, speaking to Radio Sportiva about the request made for the tax exemption of the clubs of the Italian Pro Football League. "I wrote to Minister Spadafora _ Ghirelli added - If a signal arrives by tomorrow, well, otherwise we will make decisions. I take responsibility for blocking the championship". For months we have been talking about semi-professionalism - explains Ghirelli - and tax exemption, but zero facts. They tell us what to do, we represent the history of the municipalities of Italy and someone needs to take responsibility ". And on the requests he adds:" The presidents of Serie C do not buy great players but form players. Each president spends from 3 to 4 million a year. We demand that part of the tax burden be invested in infrastructure, training and education societies. There is no more time ".
