JAKARTA - Serie B 2023/2024 is over. Parma and Como confirmed promotions to Serie A next season after ending the season as champions and runners-up.

The Jay Idzes club, Venezia, is actually also the main competitor to promotion tickets to Serie A. However, they can only finish in third place with a difference of six points from Parma.

However, Venezia still has a promotion opportunity for Italy's highest-level league next season.

You see, third to eighth places will be pitted against one ticket remaining to Serie A.

Venezia and Cremonese as ranked third and fourth are already waiting in the semifinals.

Meanwhile Catanzaro will face Brescia and Palermo meet Sampdoria in the first half playoffs.

The winners of the two matches will meet Cremonese and Venezia. Palermo and Sampdoria are against Venezia in the semifinals of the promotion playoffs.

The match will be held in two legs. The first meeting will be held on May 20, 2024, and the second leg will take place on May 24.

Then, the winner of the promotional playoffs will clash in the final looking for the best to go to Serie A. The top playoff party will also be held in two legs on May 30 and June 2, 2024.

The 23-year-old defender has ambitions to bring Venezia to Serie A next season. He did not see the team's failure to finish in the top two Serie B 2023/2024 as the end.

"There is no light without darkness," wrote Idzes on his personal Instagram looking at promotional playoffs.

Feeling Serie A's atmosphere with Venezia will certainly be a valuable opportunity for Idzes. He will thrive when he tasted Italy's highest level league. Moreover, Idzes' contract with Venezia is still long until 2027.

The development of Idzes will not contribute to his career, but also the Indonesian national team.

Meanwhile, for Venezia, they want to return to Serie A since the last time they felt it was in the 2021/2022 season.
