Juventus president Agnelli blasts Serie A leadership

Juventus president Andrea Agnelli has lashed out at his Serie A counterparts.

Agnelli has accused Serie A leaders as being stuck in their old ways.

"I am not the leader of the opposition in Italian football, because we don't have a Government," said Agnelli.

"Nothing happens without a meeting of the Presidents. The Lega Serie A itself is weak and has no authority, nor its own management. This leads to a less transparent situation, for example with TV rights, and a conflict of interest.

"We ought to change some of our ideas and behaviour. With few exceptions, the Presidents are all 60-70 years old. There are few in their 40s."
