ROME (Reuters) - Gabriele Gravina, president of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC), has spoken out against a breakaway European Super League and said he hopes to see a "good percentage" of fans at the delayed Euro 2021 fixtures to be played in Rome this summer.

Gravina is up for re-election on Monday against the current president of the amateur leagues, Cosimo Sibilia, having held the top job at the FIGC since October 2018.
