Lega Serie A, there is a quartet in the running for the presidency

MILAN. Lorenzo Bini Smaghi, Carlo Bonomi, Lorenzo Casini and Mauro Masi: a quartet in the running for the position of president of the Serie A League, vacant for three weeks after the resignation of Paolo Dal Pino. The number became final after the publication of the official note on the modified agenda of the Lega assembly, scheduled for Friday. The presentation in person of the candidates to the clubs has been transformed into an internal discussion, since there are already many points to be addressed and therefore there would be no time. Appointment postponed to March 3 when the elective assembly was set, the first with a simple majority at 11 after two unsuccessful attempts with the quorum of 14. On that occasion the four eligible presidents will parade. Bini Smaghi, former member of the executive committee of the ECB and now chairman of the Board of the Societé Generale. Bonomi, entrepreneur and president of Confindustria. Casini, university professor and head of cabinet of the Ministry of Culture. Masi, former director general of Rai and currently president of Consap. The initial confrontation, which will help to shell out the quartet, will be staged within the electoral basins that support the candidates with a division in pairs, each supported more or less by half of the clubs. Bini Smaghi and Bonomi, in fact, are an expression of American properties and the great ones of the north. The banker is popular in Spezia, Genoa, Bologna and Rome. The entrepreneur was proposed by Inter and Milan, with Beppe Marotta and Paolo Scaroni as main sponsors. Casini and Masi, on the other hand, share the front led by Aurelio De Laurentiis and Claudio Lotito. It will be necessary to understand who will prevail within the two blocks before seeing who will be able to obtain the 11 votes necessary to start the white smoke from the headquarters in Via Rosellini.
