Giovanni Malagò speaks out on Paola Egonu and Imane Khelif
The words of Malagò
Coni president Giovanni Malagò è spoke on Zona Bianca on Rete4. "At the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics è a very serious mistake was made towards our President of the Republic, and not only his, leaving many heads of state in the rain for hours. È it was a mistake of the organizing committee".
The number one of Italian sports then spoke about two protagonists of the Games: "Paola Egonu è very Italian. When I read that there è a talk of integration, it è not so, because è she è to all intents and purposes Italian. Khelif? The sports bodies judged that she had the characteristics to compete with women. We must also remember that è an athlete who has been competing for Algeria for 7-8 years, has done several world championships, sometimes won, but sometimes lost and even in the first round. The constituting international federation è in contrast to the previous one that instrumentalized the case".
Senna case: "It's a monstrous amount of money that was invested, and I think it was not a deliberate choice to spend 1.4 billion for a few races, I don't think they are that crazy. I think they wanted to create a swimmable environment for the population for the future as well, but I don't know if that will succeed.
Closing remark on his future: "Me mayor of Rome or head of soccer? On both scenarios absolutely not. I am a serious person, with Milan-Cortina in sight how can you è think of leaving before the end of my term in 2025. But è it is possible that after all these results one cannot be reappointed. Only for Coni with the new law one cannot be re-candidate. We are voted by the members and members".
