Official: Micciche new Lega President

By Football Italia staff

Gaetano Miccicchè has been officially confirmed as the new President of the Lega Serie A, winning unanimous support from all 20 clubs.

The League has been without a President for over a year, after Maurizio Beretta stepped down in March 2017.

The following 12 months have seen numerous failed attempts to elect someone new, with first ex-FIGC chief Carlo Tavecchio and then CONI President Giovanni Malago forced to step in as commissioner.

Today though the head of Banca IMI has been elected as the new President, with Miccicchè winning the vote of all 20 clubs.
