"The system of sales of television rights and the distribution of money accentuates the economic disparity between the big and small clubs," said a statement issued by the antitrust authority after an investigation into the business dealings in Italian football.
"The return of collective television rights would ensure a much tighter championship. There needs to be more cooperation from the clubs and more dialogue between the FIGC (Italian football federation) and Lega-Calcio (The Italian football league)."
Italian clubs have been able to negotiate their own individual deals since 1999.
Last season 14 Serie A clubs threatened to boycott matches against Juventus (who have since been relegated to Serie B for match-fixing) AC Milan and Inter Milan after a proposed reform to the existing law governing TV rights was blocked by the then Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, owner of AC Milan.
The antitrust authority also said it would also like to see the end of the January transfer window, arguing it too gives an unfair advantage to the bigger clubs that are in a better financial position than the smaller teams to strengthen their squads.
