MILAN (AP) - Bank boss Gaetano Micciche has been elected president of Serie A.
Micciche, the president of Banca IMI, was chosen unanimously on Monday by the Italian league's 20 clubs.
He succeeds Maurizio Beretta, who left the position nearly a year ago.
The league has been under emergency leadership, first by former Italian football federation president Carlo Tavecchio then by Italian Olympic Committee president Giovanni Malago.
Malago recommended Micciche for the position.
The federation remains under emergency leadership following Tavecchio's resignation in the wake of Italy's failure to qualify for the World Cup.
