Players in Serie A plan to strike in a fortnight's time in a protest over their rights in transfer negotiations.
A collective contract between the Italian Players' Association (AIC) and Serie A guaranteeing players' rights expired in the summer.
Talks on a new deal failed, leading to plans to strike on 25-26 September.
The strike was announced in a statement read by AC Milan defender Massimo Oddo and signed by the captains and union representatives of all 20 clubs.
The dispute centres around a proposal by clubs to limit the rights of players to refuse transfers, as Juventus defender Fabio Grosso recently did following an offer from AC Milan.
