Rome, 14 May (LaPresse) – ’An incredible loss for both Serie A and Serie B football. In the space of two years, such a historic club will leave a wound in the fabric of our sport's values. But these are the laws of football, nothing can always be taken for granted. We are sorry, but we are convinced that such a prestigious club will be able to bounce back very quickly.’ These were the words of FIGC president Gabriele Gravina, commenting on Sampdoria's relegation to Serie C on the sidelines of a Special Olympics event in Via Allegri.
