Tensions between Serie A, the Federation and the Ministry of Health, which have rocked Italian football in recent days, were intensified on Thursday by the confirmation of three new positive cases of footballers from Sampdoria and another three from Fiorentina. , all asymptomatic and quarantined.
Monday's return to training does not seem to have cleared the horizon for the clubs, hit by a trickle of positives in the serological tests. So far, Sampdoria, Fiorentina and Torino, which also confirmed a case on Wednesday, have not revealed the identity of their infected.
Fiorentina, who a few weeks ago did admit the positives of Patrick Cutrone, Germán Pezzella and Dusan Vlahovic, has three other cases among the members of its medical staff.
Whitout deal
Meanwhile, the outlook in the offices seems even more tricky given that Thursday's meeting between an expert committee and the Federation (FIGC) did not end with any agreement. "It was all very exhaustive, with many requests from doctors. Now, scientists will write a report that will be sent to the Ministry of Health," said Vincenzo Spadafora, Minister of Sports.
"I hope that the problems can be solved and that not only the 18 Serie A teams, but also those from other sports, can resume their training," said Spadafora, who will meet with Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte in the next few hours and with the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza.
