Sassuolo director Giovanni Carnevali says Serie A must be finished "normally" for clubs to stay afloat.

Carnevali has warned of disaster unless government get out of the way.

“Everywhere we turn, there is confusion and bitterness," Carnevali told the Corriere dello Sport.

“The requirements for a training retreat are too rigid. Let me just say this: if we want to let football die, then we are on the right track. It's madness here.

“I realise we're in an unprecedented situation, but why create such confusion on top of it? Unfortunately, Italians have it in their culture to always look out for themselves and not help each other out. We look to the here and now, not with a vision of the future. We need planning and organisation from the top down.

“Sassuolo, and all the other Serie A clubs, have already stated we want this season to be brought to a natural conclusion at all costs. If some secretly want to call a halt because their position in the table is bad, then let them come forth and confess it.

“The fact is, we all have to focus on ensuring Serie A doesn't go under. There is one football industry in this country and if we don't get back to playing, it's going to be a disaster. If Serie A fails, it'll take the whole Italian football system with it."
