Vacancies
On 6 July 2021, the Lega Pro football league announced Serie D Group A winners Gozzano had renounced on their promotion right, thus automatically creating a vacancy in the league.[17]
On 9 July 2021, the Co.Vi.So.C. rejected league application of Carpi, Casertana, Novara, Paganese and Sambenedettese.[18] All these clubs successively requested being admitted on appeal;[19] in case that is denied, they would still have the opportunity for a further appeal at the Italian National Olympic Committee level.[20] On 26 July 2021 the Italian National Olympic Committee admitted Paganese's reclaim.
