Italian Soccer Federation
(FIGC) President Carlo Tavecchio said Friday that Sunday's
Genoa-Parma match has been postponed due to Parma's problems.
The move came after Parma captain Alessandro Lucarelli said
the team won't go to Genoa this Sunday for its scheduled match
and requested a postponement.
Players for the bankruptcy-threatened Serie A team have
reportedly not been paid for over six months by the club, which
may not finish this year's championship, possibly leading to
claims that the whole Serie A season has been compromised.
Judicial officials emptied out locker rooms in the team's
Tadini stadium on Friday, carrying away benches, lockers and
chairs to be sold at auction in an attempt to recoup some of the
team's 16-million-euro tax debt.
The officials then visited the team's training ground at
Collecchio for more asset seizures.
Last week, troubled Parma's match against Udinese was also
postponed because of the home side's financial issues, sources
in the city said last Friday.
