"Rai has suspended Fulvio Collovati from all TV and radio activity until Saturday, March 9," the broadcaster said in a statement on Tuesday. The announcement came after the former defender said women could not "speak about tactics" on Sunday's edition of "Quelli che il calcio". His comments have been roundly criticised in Italy, notably drawing the ire of those involved at the top level of women's football. Milena Bertolini, who is in charge of the Italy side that will take part at this year's Women's World Cup, spoke of a "primitive mindset".
