First there were fears over the delay of the Serie A season, now Italy is facing a potential delay for Serie B.
After the majority of clubs failed to agree new television rights deals, the Serie B season could face a delay. Serie B is scheduled to kick off Friday, with the main round of matches following Saturday.
Only Juventus and Genoa have reached agreements for the screening of their home matches.
Italian Football League president Antonio Matarrese says the other 20 clubs have not received offers from the likes of state broadcaster RAI, Silvio Berlusconi's Mediaset corporation and satellite broadcaster SKY Italia that have been financially palatable.
