Outgoing FIGC president Gabriele Gravina says he believes Italian football is in “good hands” as he leaves his role. In comments reported by multiple outlets, Gravina expresses confidence that the sport’s future is secure regardless of who takes over next, suggesting that either Giancarlo Abete or Giovanni Malago would be capable of leading the federation. Gravina also reflects on his time in office, saying he feels he “should have left earlier.”
The reports present Gravina’s remarks as part of his transition out of the FIGC presidency, with no single successor confirmed in the available coverage. Both sources focus on his assessment of leadership options and his view that the federation’s direction is unlikely to be undermined after his departure. Overall, the information aligns on his central message: he leaves the presidency with confidence in the next phase for Italian football and offers personal commentary about the timing of his exit from the position.
