"Gabriele Gravina's report emphasizes that the 2018 Dignity Decree has failed to achieve its intended public health goals while significantly harming the financial health of Italian football. The ban has led to a loss of critical funding, which is essential for the development of youth programs and overall competitiveness in international football."
"The findings from Italy's Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry into illegal gambling indicate that gambling rates, including among minors, have actually increased since the Dignity Decree was enacted. This suggests that the ban has not only been ineffective but may have exacerbated the very issues it aimed to address."
"Serie A clubs have reported a staggering loss of sponsorship revenue, estimated between 100M and 150M euros per year, due to the restrictions imposed by the gambling advertising ban. This financial strain has contributed to Italy's poor performance in youth player development and overall football success."
Gabriele Gravina, the outgoing president of Italy's football federation, has proposed repealing the 2018 Dignity Decree, which banned gambling advertising. He argues that this ban has not reduced problem gambling and has deprived Italian football of essential funding. Gravina's report highlights that Serie A clubs have lost an estimated 100M-150M annually in sponsorship revenue since the ban. Additionally, Italy ranks poorly in under-21 player development, with only 1.9% eligible playing time. The report suggests that structural issues, rather than mismanagement, are to blame for Italy's World Cup failures.
