Overview
- CONI president Luciano Buonfiglio has formally convened the Giunta for Tuesday, October 6 at 13:00 and circulated four jurists' opinions arguing that Giovanni Malagò must be declared decaduto for a tesseramento defect.
- FIGC has prepared five opposing legal opinions that will be presented to the Giunta, creating a sharp clash of expert advice over whether Malagò met the federation's registration rules.
- ANAC has said it does not have competence to rule on voter conflicts and directed CONI to decide who may vote, putting the eligibility of Giunta members such as Diana Bianchedi and Elisabet Spina at the center of the count.
- Any Giunta decision would move immediately to a special Consiglio of 78 federation presidents, a larger body that could overturn or ratify the Giunta outcome and whose alignments are hard to predict.
- Both sides expect rapid appeals: parties plan to seek suspension at the Collegio di Garanzia and then, if needed, bring the case to administrative courts (TAR and Consiglio di Stato), making a months-long legal fight likely.
