It’s all guessing but personally I think that they’re overthrown by the movement. Hearing the minister of sport and the head of the Serie A with a critical note aswel of course these recent days.
If it are only 50 to 100k people unsubscribing (which seems feasible at this moment) it would already cause a 20 to 40m loss annually for DAZN. And only 6 days have passed since the verdict
Behind the scenes probably many things are going on and it’s impossible that the head of operations of DAZN/Sky in Italy aren’t complaining to the FIGC now. Obviously they’re afraid.
The salary case would’ve started quite soon and if it would’ve resulted negative for us the pressure would only increase. Probably the most logical thing to do for the FIGC is buying some time and trying to understand what the hell they should do. We on the other side are probably ‘lucky’ with the timing as they should start negotiating the next tv deal in the coming months.
As said it’s guessing but this is my guess.
