Pier Ferdinando Casini fears he won't be able to be impartial.

The unexpected emigration and resignation of Serie A President Paolo Dal Pino has put the leadership of the Italian league in a difficult situation, according to Calcio e Finanza.

Atalanta President's son Luca Percassi, elected vice president, is set to organize and hold elections, but so far none of the contenders has the confidence and support that would ensure his victory.



Pier Ferdinando Casini, the ex-speaker of the lower house of the Italian parliament, turned out to have the greatest support, but for him this turn turned out to be unexpected and unacceptable..

" – Firstly, I don’t want to hold any official position. Secondly, even if I wanted to, I could not. I am a passionate admirer of Bologna and could not be impartial where complete neutrality is needed"

The situation is aggravated by the fact that the Italian football federation demands that the president of Serie A be appointed no later than February 15.
