Adriano Galliani, the AC Milan legend, is preparing for a new chapter: the race for the presidency of the FIGC. The most unusual step is that the condor has officially joined as accompanying manager of Enotria 1908, a Milanese amateur club which, according to the Inter website, is listed among the Nerazzurri training centres. This gesture does not represent a transfer of the flag, but a formal step necessary to present the federal candidacy.
Galliani, who led Milan during the Berlusconi era and helped Monza's rebirth to Serie A, is now 82, aiming for a top position in Italian football. His membership at Enotria does not imply a real link with Inter; it is simply a bureaucratic means of complying with the rules for submitting an application. The objective is clear: obtain the support of Serie A clubs and overcome market rivalry to reach the federal seat.
The deadlines are precise. Applications must be submitted by November 4th, while the final vote for the presidency of the FIGC is scheduled for December 14th. Galliani is trying to consolidate a majority among the clubs, some of which are still considering support for Giovanni Malagò. His approach, based on years of administrative experience, aims to build consensus rather than making twists and turns on the field.
In summary, the Milan legend is preparing for a new challenge: the management of Italian football. With his membership in Enotria and his candidacy in sight, Galliani intends to demonstrate that his experience can be an added value for the federation, even if the path will require more political negotiations than actions on the ground. The future of the FIGC could thus see a veteran of Italian football take the reins, but only after overcoming the complex dynamics of consensus between the Serie A teams.
