😳 Gattuso asks Serie A for a favour, hoping the league gets suspended | OneFootball

Gennaro Gattuso has publicly asked Serie A to pause the competition before the playoffs.

The Italian coach will have very few days available to prepare his team for the semifinal against Northern Ireland, but also to prepare for a potential final against Wales or Bosnia.

Therefore, he has already asked for something crucial: a training camp with his players. He did so with these words: "Talking with colleagues like Montella, I found out that in Turkey, for example, they are going to stop the championship [before the playoffs]. I hope the same is done in Italy." And he adds: "I want to have a training camp with the boys. I want to be in contact with them."

The match against Northern Ireland will be played on March 26, and before that, on the 21st and 22nd of the same month, there is a Serie A matchday.

There, Matchday 30 of the competition will take place, for which there are no schedules yet, and it includes matches like Fiorentina-Inter or Milan-Torino, so it remains to be seen if the league will be paused as they will do in Turkey or not.
