Italian Soccer Federation (FIGC) President Carlo Tavecchio said Wednesday that it was necessary to reduce Serie A from 20 to 18 teams to satisfy Italy coach Antonio Conte's demands to have more time with his players.
    Conte has repeatedly complained about having too little contact with his players, as did his predecessor Cesare Prandelli, and failed in a bid to have clubs let footballers go for brief training camps outside the periods of international games.
    When recently asked about the current state of the national team, Conte, who has not had his players together since 1-0 win over Albania in a friendly in November, replied that he had no idea. Tavecchio said reducing the number of teams in the top flight could help reduce fixture congestion and create time for the national team. "To be able to achieve what he (Conte) wants, it is necessary to reform the championship," Tavecchio said.
    "If you don't reduce Serie A to 18 teams, there'll be less and less time for training meetings and camps".
