The 2016–17 Lega Pro Divisione Unica was the third season of the unified Lega Pro division, the third highest division in the Italian football league system. The championship name, which is Divisione Unica according to the FIGC regulations, is nevertheless referred to as Lega Pro in official documents.[4] The season marked the final year that the division would carry the Lega Pro name as it was changed back to Serie C for the 2017–18 season.

Teams

[edit]

A total of 60 teams contest the league. Clubs include 4 sides relegated from the 2015–16 Serie B season, 41 sides playing the 2015–16 Lega Pro season, and 9 sides promoted from the 2015–16 Serie D season. Also, six teams are chosen to play in the league to increase the number of teams to 60.

On 1 July 2016, 54 teams mathematically qualified to the new season. However, Martina Franca and Sporting Bellinzago did not submit their application for a licence.[5] On 6 July also Virtus Lanciano did not meet the requirements to apply.[6] On 16 July Pavia and Rimini did not submit an appeal against Covisoc's exclusion.[7] On 19 July Paganese's appeal of exclusion was rejected by Covisod.[8] However, on 3 August Paganese was readmitted to the league by TAR's decision.[9] On 4 August the Federal Council selected ten teams in order to fill the vacancies created: Fano (as a replacement for Sporting Bellizango), Fondi, Forlì, Lupa Roma, Melfi, Olbia, Racing Roma, Reggina, Taranto and Vibonese.[10] On 10 August Albinoleffe was the last team to benefit from the repechage.

Notes:
  1. ^ Following the acquisition of the club by F.C. Como S.r.l., a company owned by Akosua Puni Essien, which purchased the club from the bankrupt Calcio Como S.r.l., Essien failed to either settle the club's debts or post a surety by the 28 June 2017 deadline.[11] Consequently, FIGC revoked the membership of Calcio Como S.r.l. and rejected the application by F.C. Como S.r.l. to have the club's sporting title attributed to it,[12] and Lega Pro expelled the club.[13]
