Francesco Calvo, Executive Director of Revenue and Football Development at Juventus, reflected on the financial conditions in Italy and compared Serie A clubs to the Premier League.
Francesco Calvo, Getty Images"Sometimes I wish the team was based in Milan instead of Turin, as it could offer more commercial opportunities. But there are already two clubs there, and it would be inconvenient for us. Despite all of this, we are proud to be able to represent Turin in the world, a city to which we have historically been very attached and which our fans consider home.
What are the disadvantages of Italy compared to our European competitors? First of all, it's the structure we have at the heart of it, because Serie A is not as developed as the English Premier League and Spanish La Liga. It's scary to realise that the last team in England earns more than the leader of the Italian championship," Sport Mediaset quoted Calvo as saying.
