🚨🎙️Paolo Maldini Breaks His Silence on the Current FIGC Situation:
“When Leonardo and I accepted these roles, we did so with one clear understanding: that we would be trusted to lead the sporting project and be given the authority to make football decisions. Unfortunately, it became clear that we were handed responsibilities without the power to fulfil them.”
“Many will assume this decision is simply about Andrea Pirlo. It is not. We supported him because, after careful evaluation, we believed he was the right man to begin Italy’s rebuild. You may agree or disagree with that choice—that is football. What cannot happen is asking people to carry responsibility while denying them the authority to act.”
“I have always been a man of principles. Throughout my career, whether as a player or an executive, I have never believed in compromising my values to protect a position. If I cannot defend a vision I genuinely believe in, then I have no reason to remain.”
“We accepted these roles believing we had the mandate to make difficult decisions for the future of Italian football. The moment we realised that mandate no longer existed, our decision was simple.”
“We did not resign because our preferred candidate was rejected. We resigned because the trust that brought us here disappeared. Without trust, leadership becomes a title, not a responsibility.”
GRAZIE RAGAZZI 🫶
