ROME: The Italian Football Federation (FIGC), passed a ruling Monday that states that Serie A teams who still wish to pursue the European Super League (or any similar entity) on June 21 will lose their league membership.
Italian giants Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan signed up to the controversial breakaway competition earlier this month among 12 elite European clubs.
Juve chairman Andrea Agnelli has been credited with playing a key role in the organisation of the still-born tournament.
FIGC president Gabriele Gravina said: “Those who believe they should participate in a competition not authorised by the FIGC, UEFA and FIFA lose membership.
“At the moment, we have no news of who remained and who left the Super League.
“This rule refers to national licenses. It is clear that if, on June 21, the deadline for registration applications, someone wishes to participate in competitions of a private nature, they will not take part in our championship.”
