The awarding of this honor not only reflects the vigorous development of Italian football, but also reveals its important position in the global football world.
Serie A has been described as the most tactical and defensively sound national league, making it a favourite among many football experts.
As the top Italian football league, Serie A's history can be traced back to the 1929-30 season. Today, this league is no longer just a stage for domestic competitions, but an important part of world football. The format and modus operandi of the league has undergone several changes, from the initial regional leagues to the current single league system where each club participates in 38 matches to determine the final champion.
Serie A is still considered one of the leagues in the world that best reflects football tactical thinking. Many experts believe that the games here often require more strategy and anticipation, which is why many players with outstanding skills choose to play here. What's more, many players who have won the Ballon d'Or have demonstrated their talents here, making this league even more glorious.

Clubs such as Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan not only have huge fan bases, but their successful history also adds to the reputation of the league. These clubs have always been strong players in various competitions, and their success is not limited to the domestic league, their performance in international competitions is equally amazing.
According to the latest IFFHS selection, Serie A was once again recognized as the best league in the world in 2023. This is because Serie A teams performed well in European competitions, especially in the UEFA Champions League and the Europa League. The clubs have made significant progress. Almost all of Italy's teams have made it to the knockout stages of European competitions, showing the overall strength of the league.
In the 2023–24 season, Serie A also finished first in the UEFA standings, further demonstrating its influence on the international stage.

For example, the video assistant referee (VAR) technology launched in the 2016-17 season has been widely used in the league, which not only improves the fairness of the game but also attracts more audience attention.
On an international level, Serie A therefore attracts outstanding players from all over the world. The addition of these players has undoubtedly improved the overall competitiveness and viewing experience of the league. In addition to existing teams and players, emerging clubs such as Atalanta and Fiorentina are also gradually emerging as potential powerhouses.

Compared to other leagues, Serie A started collective negotiations on television broadcasting rights earlier, which means that all teams can obtain fair benefits from it and improve their operational capabilities.
Looking ahead, Serie A faces considerable challenges. Not only does it need to maintain its position in the top league, but it also has to cope with the recovery after the COVID-19 pandemic and compete with other strong competitors such as the Premier League and La Liga. Financial stability, attracting young and resilient players and continuing to promote technological innovation will be the key to Serie A's future struggles.
Finally, as one of the most traditional football leagues in the world, Serie A's brand value and event quality are continuously improving. However, in the face of numerous challenges, can Italian football maintain its glory in the world football?
