AC Milan legend Gianni Rivera has launched an informal bid for the FIGC presidency, proposing a specific reform agenda to address the systemic crisis following Italy’s latest World Cup elimination.
Ballon d’Or winner Gianni Rivera has announced his intention to run for the FIGC presidency following Gabriele Gravina’s resignation.
Speaking on Rai Radio 1 Sport, the 82-year-old AC Milan legend stated, “I am ready to become FIGC president because I have a very specific programme,” developed alongside associates to reform the federation after Italy’s third consecutive failure to qualify for the World Cup.
Rivera expressed little shock at the national team’s decline, noting, “There is no reason to be surprised about failing to qualify.”
To secure the role, he must navigate an assembly of 516 weighted votes, with the Lega Nazionale Dilettanti holding a decisive 34% share.
Formal documentation for the June 22 election must be submitted by June 7 to address what Rivera calls “serious problems.”

Despite the initial condemnation, the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust welcomed the apology, noting De Zerbi’s reiterated commitment to challenging domestic violence.
The Italian, who signed a five-year deal with the North London club, remains focused on the immediate relegation battle, asserting, “I will be the coach of Tottenham next season, no matter what.”

Gabriele Gravina has resigned as President of the Italian Football Federation following Italy’s devastating failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, triggering a total overhaul of the national team’s leadership.
Gabriele Gravina, President of the Italian Football Federation, resigned Thursday following an emergency meeting triggered by Italy’s playoff loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The defeat marks the four-time champions’ third consecutive World Cup absence.
Sports Minister Andrea Abodi emphasized the need for a total reset, stating: “It is clear that Italian football needs to be rebuilt, and this process must begin with a renewal.”
The fallout extends beyond the presidency, with head coach Gennaro Gattuso and team manager Gianluigi Buffon also expected to depart.
Despite winning Euro 2020 during his tenure, Gravina faced insurmountable pressure after failing to secure qualification for both the 2022 and 2026 tournaments.
Leadership from Serie A, Serie B, and the Players’ Union attended the summit to begin navigating this unprecedented institutional crisis.

Internal friction involving vice-captain Enzo Fernández has surfaced alongside Chelsea’s record-breaking £262.4m financial deficit.
Chelsea players are reportedly “unimpressed” by Enzo Fernández’s leadership during the club’s recent slump.
The vice-captain sparked controversy by refusing to commit his future to the club, stating, “I don’t know – there are eight games left and the FA Cup. There’s the World Cup and then we’ll see.”
Tensions peaked after he publicly berated teammates on-pitch during a string of four consecutive defeats.
Simultaneously, the club posted a British-record £262.4m loss for the 2024-25 season. Despite revenue growth, rising operating costs and a league-high £65.1m expenditure on agent fees have strained finances.
Former midfielder John Obi Mikel criticized the atmosphere, stating, “This is Chelsea, not a stepping stone to another team. If your heart is already in Madrid, you shouldn’t wear the blue jersey.”
