Former Napoli Coach: Hosting Serie A Matches in Australia Is Foolish

Ottavio Bianchi, the former head coach of Italy's "Napoli" club, who managed the team during the Diego Maradona era in the 1980s, criticized the idea of holding Serie A matches abroad, specifically in Australia. He referred to the concept as "utterly foolish."

"When I hear such things, it makes me laugh. Football has been taken over by money.

This is nothing but an utterly foolish and illogical advertising tactic," Bianchi's remarks were quoted by the publication pianetamilan.it. It is worth noting that "Napoli" is the reigning champion of the Italian league.
