Serie A to stay with 20 teams

Serie A will remain a 20-team division after a league assembly scotched yesterday an attempt by Italy’s biggest clubs to cut the number of participants to 18.

In a statement, Serie A said that “the league’s current format of 20 teams has been confirmed”, following the meeting at its Milan headquarters.

Italian media report that Inter Milan, Juventus, AC Milan and Roma were the only four clubs to vote in favour of the proposal, with the other 16 all voting against.

The idea of cutting the number of teams in Italy’s top flight has been floating around for a while as the number of games played by top clubs and players increases.

Serie A’s top four from this season will take part in the Champions League which from next term will have a new format. — SuperSport.
