Posted on: Tue 18 Dec 2007
Franco Ceravolo has resigned from his position as QPR Chief Scout with immediate effect, owing to family reasons.
Ceravolo told http://www.qpr.co.uk: "I would like to thank Bernie Ecclestone, Alejandro Agag, Gianni Paladini, Luigi De Canio, the players and all the staff I have worked with during my time here.
"They all made me feel so welcome, and I was treated very well.
"I would especially like to thank Flavio Briatore, who is not only a fantastic businessman, but also a fantastic person.
"I greatly appreciate being given the opportunity to work for him at QPR.
"Unfortunately the move to London wasn't ideal from a family perspective, and it is with regret that I am having to step down from my position."

QPR's Chief Scout Franco Ceravolo In The News
-Mail - Four hours early - the QPR scout who demanded a VIP upgrade at Watford and was turned down
- The former right-hand man of disgraced Juventus general manager Luciano Moggi has turned up as a scout for Queens Park Rangers and is already causing trouble. Franco Ceravolo, who faces charges of criminal conspiracy in Italy over the match-fixing scandal, went to check out Watford against Bristol City at Vicarage Road on Saturday and he managed to seriously irritate his hosts.
- Rangers had initially asked for a director's pass for Ceravolo but, as he is not listed as a QPR board member, Hornets officials decided to issued him with scout's access only.
The move infuriated the Italian who, after mistakenly turning up four hours early for the 5.20pm kick-off, went on to complain to Watford staff, insisting he was a VIP and that he should be sat with the directors.
"He created a right stink," a Watford source told the London Evening Standard. Earlier this year, Ceravolo and Moggi were charged with criminal conspiracy in connection with the operation of the now defunct player management agency GEA World. Ceravolo has denied any involvement. Mail
[NB: In October. 2007 after various press reports that Franco Ceravolo had been appointed QPR Chief Scout, Chairman Paladini Denied that Ceravolo was on QPR Staff ]
Dail Mail- October 13, /Daniel King - Moggi's co-accused in match-fixing case is working as a scout for QPR
Franco Ceravolo, who is working as a scout for the new regime at Queens Park Rangers, is among those facing charges of criminal conspiracy in the Italian match-fixing scandal.
Ceravolo, linked strongly with the job of sporting director at Loftus Road, was previously chief scout at Juventus, where he was regarded as the right-hand man of Luciano Moggi, the Juve general manager.
Earlier this year, Ceravolo and Moggi were charged with criminal conspiracy in connection with the operation of the now defunct player management agency GEA World, which was run by Moggi's son, Alessandro, and Davide Lippi, son of World Cupwinning coach Marcello.
The next hearing in the case, which opened in Rome in June, is due before the end of the year. Ceravolo has denied any involvement.
QPR chairman Gianni Paladini denied that Ceravolo is on the club's staff. "He is not under contract with the club. He's just helping us out until his problems are solved," he said. Mail
