ROME – More dialogue and discussion are needed to reduce controversy and ensure uniformity of judgment. This is the approach advocated by Ezio Maria Simonelli, president of the Lega Serie A, speaking on the subject of refereeing at the end of the meeting held in Rome at the FIGC headquarters, dedicated to football system reforms.
"We are working with the referees to hold more and more meetings to better explain decisions and achieve uniformity of judgment," Simonelli stated, implicitly acknowledging one of the league's most controversial issues. This issue continues to fuel controversy among clubs, fans, and industry insiders, and the League now aims to address it through a more structured dialogue with the referees.
During the meeting, the president explained, the focus remained on the overall reform framework, with the goal of making the football system more robust and sustainable over time. Refereeing, in this context, is highlighted as one of the key elements in restoring credibility to the league and reducing the tensions that cyclically erupt during the season.
