Milan full-back Massimo Oddo read out the following statement: “The AIC, in accordance with the teams in Serie A, has decided that they will not take to the pitch on the 5th round of the season on September 25 and 26 in protest at the introduction of the new contractual regime.”
The highest profile match to be effected will be that between Roma and Inter.
When asked to explain the decision, Oddo said: “The players are fed up with being treated like objects and not like people.
“We are dealing with human rights here,” he concluded.
