MANZANO. The Serie D championship begins on 19 September and the Manzanese will not be at the starting line.
A sensational decision that arises from the choice of the orange club to program the corporate management in a different way and to try to restart from the Excellence in the 2021-2022 season.
A bolt from the blue, because on July 26 the Manzanese received the communication from Covisod (the economic-financial control body of amateur clubs) of registration, given that the investigation relating to the request to participate in the series championship D sent by the company had given a positive result.
Now, however, the company is evaluating, as anticipated, the possibility of enrolling in the regional championship of Excellence. The first step is to retire from the Serie D championship, which should be completed within the day.
The company will then make an application to the Regional Committee of the FIGC to participate in the Excellence. At this point, the regional federation will have to wait for the opinion of the national league.
The admission of the Manzanese will then be evaluated during the Executive Council of the regional FIGC scheduled for Tuesday 7 September.
The Manzanese leaves the D series after only one season of stay ended with the third place (best placement in its history) and the achievement of the promotion play-offs.
