Juventus received a 15-point penalty for manipulating the accounting books.
The Italian Football Federation (FIGC) said on its official website on the 21st (Korean time), “The Federal Court of Appeals partially accepted the appeal of the Federal Prosecutor’s Office and handed down a 15-point reduction. In addition, 11 members of the Juventus board were suspended. sentenced,” he said.
Previously, Italian prosecutors requested a nine-point penalty from Juventus for committing fraudulent accounting in the course of player transfer transactions. It was alleged that Juventus intentionally inflated the transfer fee and manipulated the books. The acquittal was issued in April, but the prosecution decided to appeal.
The Italian court imposed a stronger 15-point penalty. This takes effect immediately. At the same time, 11 board members involved in accounting fraud, including Fabio Paratici, Andrea Agneli and Pavel Nedved, were suspended for a minimum of 8 months and a maximum of 30 months.
Paratici, who is now acting as Tottenham general manager, has been sentenced to a 30-month suspension, but this only applies in Italy. However, this disciplinary action includes a request to suspend activities of the European Football Federation (UEFA) and the International Football Federation (FIFA), so it is not a situation that can be relieved. 바카라
Except for Juventus, the other 8 clubs were acquitted. The clubs and executives of Sampdoria, Pro Vercelli, Genoa, Parma, Pisa, Empoli, Novara and Pescara have been cleared of account manipulation charges.
Juventus plans to appeal the ruling as soon as it is announced. According to The Guardian and ESPN, the club’s lawyers released a statement saying, “We believe this punishment is a clear unfairness to millions of fans, and we believe it will be corrected in the next court soon.”
As a result, Juventus was relegated to Serie B in 2006 in the ‘Calciopoli Scandal’ and was punished again in 17 years. In addition, it fell to 11th place with 27 points in an instant, falling away from the championship competition. The victory of Napoli (47 points), which is in the sole lead, is more powerful.
