'I don't give a sh*t about the Scudetto' - Brescia owner Cellino calls for further postponement amid coronavirus 'plague'

Brescia owner Massimo Cellino has decried hopes that Serie A could be restarted before the end of the campaign, saying that football must come second to combatting the "plague" of coronavirus.

The Italian city has been one of the epicentres of Europe's Covid-19 pandemic, with a higher rise in confirmed cases than any other location on Tuesday, as authorities continue to struggle to contain the spread of the disease.

The club sit at the foot of the top-flight, having seen a merry-go-round campaign of hiring and firing in the coaching job not unlike that presided over by Cellino during his days as owner of Leeds United.
