Gravina does not resign and locks down Spalletti: «Multi-year project, it makes no sense to interrupt it»
In the aftermath of Italy's defeat, the president of the FIGC speaks: "There is no way anyone can govern our world from the outside by asking for my resignation or that of the coach.""Sorry and disappointed, all responsible." But everyone stays in their place .
FIGC president Gabriele Gravina does not resign and locks down Luciano Spalletti in the aftermath of the Azzurri debacle at Euro 2024.
«I spoke with Spalletti last night. It makes no sense to interrupt a project that is multi-year and has only started eight months ago ,” he says. "We have faith in him, in sixty days we will be back on the pitch and it makes no sense to think that by changing the project an Mbappè will emerge in two months."
"I don't run away from responsibility, but let the criticism be constructive", continues the FIGC president, this time referring to himself. «Instrumental criticism linked to a request for resignation hurts, constructive criticism must be listened to. There is no way anyone can govern our world from the outside, this applies both to politics and to all the others who ask for my or Spalletti's resignation. The FIGC elections cannot be held before the Olympics, we will hold them at the first available date."
Returning to the European Championships: «We are sorry for the result, disappointed for not having been able to demonstrate everything that was done. Yesterday we all reflected together, dividing responsibilities, because we are all responsible."
