New FIGC president Carlo Tavecchio has plans to cut Serie A to 18 teams.
He plans to reduce Serie A to 18 teams, Serie B to between 18 and 20 teams, and to also push the Lega Pro 'to as few teams as possible', in what the 71-year-old described as 'the mother of all battles'.
"It's useless that we go around in circles for years and not do anything concrete," Tavecchio has commented.
"The logic behind reducing the amount of professional teams is in the facts. In this way our resources will be better shared. It's useless to hide the fact that our financial situation isn't pretty.
"This is the dominating theme - a revised Serie A, Serie B and Lega Pro.
"And the timing on this? During the next three years."
