Brescia relegated to Serie C and saved Sampdoria
The Italian Federal Court has sanctioned the Lombards with four points
Earthquake in Italy. It was a possibility, however remote, and it has happened. The Federal National Court has decided to penalize Brescia with four points for this season, thus confirming its relegation to Serie C. This saves Sampdoria , who would currently be playing in the Play-Out against Salernitana.
The penalty was announced today. The Lombard club will appeal the decision, but if it stands, it would be a lifeline for a historic club like Sampdoria, which was hoping to avoid relegation if the authorities ruled in its favor . This is what happened, and for now, Brescia is now a Serie C team with this four-point penalty, a penalty they will receive in the 2025/2026 season in the Italian second division.
It’s not just a sanction for the club, but also for its president and owner, Massimo Cellino, with a six-month ban . Another big beneficiary of Brescia’s relegation is Frosinone, which would be saved and continue in Serie B next year . Sampdoria would have another chance to maintain its professional football standings in the relegation match. Calcio and its stories.
