Delaware: I hope Serie A will be reduced to 16 teams, increase TV advertising revenue and broadcast games for free

In an interview, Naples Club Chairman De Laurentis said that the Serie A team should be reduced to 16 and the Serie A will be broadcast for free.

Currently there are 20 teams in the Serie A. De Laurentis first said: "I hope that the Serie A can be reduced to 16 teams as in 1986 to prevent players from being exhausted and losing value. Players are an important asset of the club. A Serie A with only 16 teams participating can also avoid the kind of game that only a few thousand spectators watch, which weakens the commercial value of Italian football."

De Laurentis stressed: "Many people think that if we (reduce Serie A teams) will lead to less money, but it is not. Because in this way, the value of other Serie A games will increase."

Then De Laurentis proposed another reform proposal, "It is time for Prime Minister Meloni to announce the cancellation of the Rai and other telecommunications. The time is for the TV station to limit the advertising limit, so that the Serie A can get higher advertising revenue and broadcast for free at the same time. Currently, Serie A is broadcast by Rai and Mediaset, and Italians will be very happy to be able to watch all games for free, and the ratings will soar. "

de Laurentis continued: "Everyone is very clear that the broadcast funds allocated to the TV network platform to FIFA and UEFA have occupied the resources of the Italian league. Therefore, there are two solutions: either broadcast the league for free, bringing advertising revenue to the club; or letting fans watch the game pay per view, so that in addition to selling live tickets for the stadium, virtual broadcast tickets can also be sold. "

However, de Laurentis also admits that the idea of ​​broadcasting Serie A for free is just a dream. "I wouldn't have too many fantasies about government officials forcing Rai and Mediaset to broadcast Serie A for free. But they overlooked the important fact that football can bring 30 million fans' votes. In addition, politicians still regard us club owners as the kind of 'rich fools' that Giulio Onesti once said."
