Juventus has ban lifted and takes 3rd place in Serie A

This Thursday, the 20th, the verdict regarding the punishment suffered by the Juventus at the Italian Championship, made by the Collegio de Garantia of the Italian Olympic Committee. Three months ago, the Old Lady lost 15 points in the Serie Adue to an investigation that pointed out that the club committed some tax fraud.

Thus, Juve, which was in 7th place, with 44 points, jumped to 3rd place and accounts for 59 points. The team that was planning for a season away from Champions League returns to a position that qualifies it for European competition. With this change, the Milansemifinalist of the Champions League, with 53 added, is left out of the G-4.

The lawsuit that was in effect against the club returns to the Court of Appeal, which will start a new trial on the case. Thus, despite Juventus’ moment of celebration, the team’s score in Serie A is subject to further changes until the end of the championship.

The reason for the prior punishment suffered by Velha Senhora was the tax fraud committed by the club in hiring players. Information from the Italian football federation attorney’s office was passed on to the Public Ministry of Turinwhich showed signs of false accounting, non-existent invoices and market manipulations.

However, with this new appeal decision, Juve is beginning to rethink some of its attitudes towards the club’s sporting project for the coming seasons. Renewal of contract with Di Maria, for example, was an agenda that depended on this positive feedback to continue evolving. With the punishment reversed, the team returns with everything to the final stretch of the Italian Championship.
