The idea that players like Maldini, Baresi, Costacurta, Cafu, Pirlo, Schechenko, Inzaghi, Ronaldinho, Gattuso, etc have all laced up the boots for Ac Milan and THIS is the most expensive transfer in history tells you how far the club, the league and the game have changed.

🚨 Milan are signing Gonçalo Ramos from PSG for €65M + €5M in bonuses. He’ll become the most expensive signing in the club’s history. 📰 Di Marzio

I’m becoming more and more convinced that this guy has set up the “Office of Do Things for People.” Just a group of Gen Z and millennials who sit around thinking, “what if we do X to help people”… and then.. they just.. do it. Wild how that can work in government.

100%. Juventus have almost always had a competent Italian executive(s) at the helm during winning periods. From Boniperti to the Triade and, most recently, Marotta. Post-Calciopoli will tell you that a French-led regime does work. Like @IFTVMarco, this feels promising.
Marco Messina@IFTVMarco

I’m excited about Carnevali joining Juve ⚪️⚫️ Reminds me of when the club brought in Marotta: proper football executive who understands every aspect of running a club No silly algorithms. Just football intelligence, smart business, & long term planning 📈 I have a good feeling

@keralista This misses the point imo. These are winning coaches in & out of Italy. Conte, Sarri, Mancini and especially Ancotti are winners. Young Italian coaches are also doing well and winning. Palladino, Italiano, Grosso, Farioli, Maresca. Talent/governance are bigger problems.

Allegri- 58 years old Spaletti- 67 years old Gasperini- 68 years old Sarri- 67 years old Conte- 56 years old Inzaghi- 50 years old Ancelotti- 66 years old Roberto Mancini- 61 years old See a pattern ? Not only does Italian football not produce any young players, they do not have any young managers in the league as well. All of the young managers flee the league as soon as possible because they know there is no future here. If Italy wants to build a future coaches like Palladino, Motta, Italiano need to be hired at clubs with a project to recruit players that suit their style and not have a hire and fire policy.

Call him crazy but the growing popularity of leagues like @KingsLeague_IT does suggest shorter more entertainment/creator-first programming is interesting to younger audience. But it’s a bad way to grow the fan base. In Italy the problems run deeper than length of the match.

Napoli owner and movie mogul Aurelio De Laurentiis has ideas about what needs to change in football. Lots of them. So he invited @AdamCrafton_ to his home in Beverley Hills to share them. ⏱️ 25-minutes halves 🗑️ No red and yellow cards, just sin bins 🇺🇸 U.S. teams in the Champions League 🇪🇺 A new European Super…Championship ‼️ And more. Many more. 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/71885…

@tomsan106 Because they have a narrow view of a single problem (talent pipeline) vs grasping the interconnected nature of governance, development, and commercialization. That last part especially… for better or worse, making money is what drives sports today.

That conversation isn’t happening inside the FIGC. Which is why the answer has to come from outside too. The report is worth reading. But then what?

The leagues and industries that rebuilt themselves through structural failure changed what the system was for. Instead they built around shared goals and let that goal adjudicate every conflict the old structure had learned to absorb indefinitely.

Earlier, outgoing @FIGC President Gravina, shared his diagnosis of Italian football’s many troubles and a series of remedies. It seems very on brand that, like Baggio’s famous 900-page report, will likely never be actioned. A 🧵 on some glaring misses. tinyurl.com/mrxj3z35

@ITruth98 Ventura is one of the better examples of everything wrong with the reform movement. Stale ideas. Platitudes. And no accountability. Name someone with a comprehensive plan?

The way Ventura has come out of the woodwork to justify Italy not qualifying for the 2018 World Cup on his watch is shameless. He defends his catastrophic failure constantly, despite having had the best team and easiest path of the three attempts. He shouldn't speak.

@AlexiLalas This and so so much more. The problem is complex and the governing bodies keep looking for internal answers to a structural problem. Governance, modernization, commercial reform...

Italy's failure is obviously due to pay-to-play, competition with other sports, best athlete's not playing soccer, pro/rel, parents, coaches, fields, no street soccer, and social media. Che vergogna.
Mike@mikesamps

@AlexiLalas I’m still yelling about @Azzurri_En not qualifying for the @FIFAWorldCup A World Cup without Italy just doesn’t quite feel like a World Cup.
