Serie C: Championship starts poorly, three clubs at risk

With Serie C just days away from the start, three historic clubs are experiencing a summer of corporate crisis and penalties.

There was much talk in the spring and summer. The proclamations were numerous: no more Taranto and Turris cases, no more suspensions during the season. But the risk of history repeating itself is real.

Clubs at risk in Serie C

Today, Gazzetta dello Sport analyzed the situation, explaining not only which three Serie C clubs are at risk, but also highlighting the reasons why they find themselves in this situation.

Here is a summary of the analysis conducted by the gossip newspaper:

Ternana - From Serie B Dream to Crisis

Ternana – After losing the playoff final on penalties, the D'Alessandro brothers have stepped back, leaving the club without a clear leadership. A penalty is imminent (-2) and wages will need to be reduced. The only option left to attract investors is the agreement with the city for the new Liberati stadium, which has been entrusted to Stadium for 44 years.

Triestina - already a penalty and late withdrawal

Triestina – Preparations only began on August 5th, and they're already seven points down in the standings, with a risk of another six points down. The owners have missed multiple deadlines, amidst rumors of a transfer and denials. Despite some payments made last month, the future remains uncertain, and fans are worried.

Rimini, protests and an uncertain future

Rimini – Ownership changes to Building Company Srl amid protests and financial uncertainty. Sporting director Nember is out after an assault, and Braglia's future as coach is uncertain. Three cities, three fan bases, one certainty: the season starts off on an uphill slope, and the pitch is still the last thing on the mind.
