Inter and Fiorentina already in. Napoli as well surely. Finally our clubs are playing some serious stuff!
This is where Italy will win back serious points, not the CL
Now that the Germans have 4 slots, their 2nd tier clubs will be more focused on gaining that rather than doing well in the EL. Which is what the Italians basically did for the past decade, and what allowed the Germans to actually take that 4th slot off them
Because up until 2 to 3 years ago, Italian clubs were far more dominant in the CL than their German counterparts. It was the UEFA Cup that won them that slot, not the actual CL. Which let's not even get into how ridiculous that points system is.
Good to hear that a club like Fiorentina with probably 1/4 the budget of an EPL club like Spurs can KO them out of the competition.
