Supercoppa, Serie A apologises to fans for crowd trouble: latest updates | OneFootball

In the past few hours, several fans of Milan, Inter, Napoli, and Bologna have joined their teams in Riyadh, where the brand-new edition of the Italian Super Cup is taking place. The latter, due to various problems with their boarding passes, were forced to delay their arrival in Italy by a full 11 hours. Just moments ago, through a press release, Serie A League expressed its full support for the fans affected by the incident.

Super Cup, Serie A League apologizes for the disturbances with the fans: the latest

Here is what the League reported on its official channels: “Serie A League learned with dismay about the inconvenience experienced this morning by 130 fans upon arrival at Naples airport, returning from the trip for the Italian Super Cup in Saudi Arabia. This trip was organized by Serie A League for nearly 200 Italian fans of the four participating teams, with the utmost logistical care and in collaboration with technical partners specialized in charter transport. Unfortunately, after landing at Capodichino, there were problems related to the flight documentation of passengers transiting to Milan, who were held by the airport Border Police for several hours, while Napoli fans disembarked without issues. This delay caused the charter crew to exceed the maximum number of consecutive working hours, and therefore they necessarily had to stop for the 11-hour break required by law.”

“Serie A League directly contacted the fans involved, apologizing to them and, despite not having direct responsibility for the incident, immediately took action to resolve the operational problem and reimburse all travel expenses that the fans will incur to return to their respective cities. Furthermore, as a gesture of goodwill, Serie A League intends to offer them, in addition to covering all costs incurred for the return, an annual subscription to the Dazn platform and entry to the stadium for one of the next home matches of their favorite team. Obviously, the League will formally contest the service disruptions to the contracted suppliers.”
