Serie A has been suspended since March 9 because of the coronavirus pandemic which has claimed 15,887 lives in Italy, almost a quarter of the global death total. Several club presidents have suggested that the season should be called off. "We are working on a whole series of possible solutions to manage the situation in the best possible way."

Gravina explained that if the current season was abandoned, Italian football could suffer"an avalanche of litigation to which we would be subjected by all those who could be considered damaged in their rights and interests."
