ROME – Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Rome yesterday to sign a series of trade agreements with Italy. And among the various agreements, the possibility arises of having a Serie A game played in China over the next three years. The "Financial Times" writes. Among the points mentioned we can read the possibility of "organizing, in the next 3 years and in the face of an adequate budget, an official match of our championship in China". But the idea at the moment is just an idea. There is nothing concrete.
On Sunday, March 24, a historic meeting will be held at the headquarters of the Federcalcio between the Chinese government, which will be represented by the Minister of Communication, and the leaders of the Italian Federation and the Serie A football league. hypothesis.
However, to organize an official match of our championship in China, we need the OK from the Asian Football Federation and FIFA. Not really a formality. La Liga Spain, for example, due to the opposition of Fifa has had to postpone plans to hold a championship race in the United States.
Another possible solution would be to play an Italian Cup game. Maybe the final. The Super Cup, for example, this year was played in Saudi Arabia. And in recent years it was played in Beijing and Shanghai.
Furthermore, the two national teams, the Italian and the Chinese, could play friendly matches in the other country. Space also for women's football. The meeting at the Football Federation will also talk about sponsors, exclusive content (texts, photos and videos) to Chinese media channels and privileged positions for Chinese journalists in the stadiums of the Serie A and, finally, also the possibility that Italy may help Chinese football movement providing advice and assistance regarding the Var.
