Quick Look
- Adriano Galliani has lodged an appeal with the National Federal Tribunal of the FIGC against the commission set up by commissioner Giovanni Malagò to verify the candidatures for the presidency of the Football Federation.
- The complaint, signed by the lawyer Filippo Lattanzi, is based on Genoa's double signature, first for Galliani and then for Malagò with a PEC of revocation and warning.
- If the Genoa signature were not valid for Malagò, the commissioner would lose the requirements for candidacy, not having the eleven necessary signatures of the Serie A clubs.

Why It Matters
The commission was established last November 2 and coordinated by General Parrinello. Federal sources clarify that the commission does not replace the Secretary, Marco Brunelli, who remains the only one with verification power. The commission would serve to make itself unassailable in the eyes of Coni which in the commissionership provision had spoken of a lack of personnel and controls.

ANSA learned this, having seen the document signed by the lawyer Filippo Lattanzi.
Among the bases of the complaint is the double signature of Genoa which first signed for Galliani - who attached it in the application folder - and then turned to Malagò, with a certified e-mail of revocation and warning. Should the signature of Genoa not be valid for Malagò, the commissioner would lose the requirements for candidacy, not having the eleven necessary signatures of the Serie A clubs.
