Malagò: 'Overconvinced of Bianchedi's appointment, but I got the timing wrong'

"I am completely convinced that Diana Bianchedi is the person who, more than anyone else, can represent the cultural bridge between football and other sports, in terms of values ​​and in terms of her professional history, sporting and entrepreneurial curriculum. I got the timing wrong."

To the question 'which move would you never make again?', posed during an interview on the Radio Anch'io Sport program on Radio 1, FIGC commissioner Giovanni Malagò responds as follows.

"When I asked, calling all the people interested and no one can say otherwise, we were in the month of August when everything was at a standstill - argues Malagò regarding the choice of Bianchedi in the role of head of delegation of the Italian national team -. The championship had not started, the World Cup had ended... This thing was probably also interpreted by the world of the media as a stone in the pond, as a provocation and this objectively created a casus belli for me, which in my opinion was not right. But I have learned that in life, Even in decisions that have logic, the temporal aspect is fundamental."
