Serie A could run till October, says Italian FA head
The Serie A season could be extended to September or October, the head of the Italian FA (FIGC) said on Sunday.
Serie A has been suspended since March 9 because of the coronavirus pandemic, which has claimed more than 15,800 lives in Italy.
"Could it finish in September or October? That is one hypothesis. It's a way to avoid jeopardising not only the 2019-20 season but also the 2020-21 season," FIGC president Gabriele Gravina told state broadcaster RAI's Domenica Sportiva.
Gravina explained that if the current season were abandoned, Italian football could suffer "an avalanche of litigation". - REUTERS
