Reggiana Hub
Reggiana is about to experience a Serie C season with a new salary cap. The Salary Cap introduced by Lega Pro aims to prevent clubs from spending more than they actually earn.
What is the Salary Cap?
The principle behind this innovation is simple: each club will not be able to spend more than 50% of its economic production on salaries.
How does the salary cap work?
The salary cap will be calculated based on the actual income of each club. Reggiana will have an advantage thanks to the parachute payment for relegation from Serie B, which will allow it to dispose of around 1.6 million euros.
What are the consequences of exceeding the salary cap?
Clubs that exceed the salary cap will not be excluded from the championship or suffer penalties in the standings, but will have to pay a fine proportional to the amount of the overrun.
| Season | Salary Cap |
|---|---|
| 2026-2027 | 50% of revenue |
| 2027-2028 | 45% of revenue |
Reggiana, currently 18th in Serie B with 37 points, will have to calibrate its roster for the next season taking into account the new salary cap. The team has scored 36 goals and conceded 56, with a deficit of 20 goals.
What is Reggiana's current situation?
Reggiana ended the season with a 1-0 win against Sampdoria on May 8, 2026. The team is currently 45 points behind Serie B leaders Venezia.
Lega Pro will monitor the economic situation of each club on a monthly basis, with official checks scheduled for November, March, and May.
