Juventus dropped 10 points in Serie A

The Federal Court of Appeal convicted the Turin club in a case of financial fraud.

Juventus have been deducted 10 points from Serie A this season. This decision was taken by the Federal Appeals Tribunal. It was reported by La Gazzeta dello Sport.

At the same time, the prosecution demanded that the Bianconerri be stripped of 11 points in the standings and that some of the club’s managers, including Pavel Nedved, be banned from playing football for 8 months.

However, Themis decided otherwise. The court acquitted all the functionaries. All charges against Pavel Nedved, Paolo Garimberti, Asia Grazioli Venier, Caitlin Mary Hughes, Danielo Marilungo, Francesco Roncallo and Enrico Vellano were dismissed.

Thus, due to the deduction of points, Juventus dropped to seventh place in the championship. The club has responded to the decision of the appeals instance.

The message says that the club will appeal against this decision, but is also proud to be punished.

“Juventus Football Club is aware of the decision of the Court of Appeal of the Italian Football Federation and reserves the right to review its reasons to assess the possibility of an appeal to the Guarantee Board of the Italian National Olympic Committee.

The finding of the fifth court in this case, which began more than a year ago, causes great bitterness for the club and its millions of fans, who, in the absence of clear rules, are punished for the penalty not taken into account. consider the principle of proportionality.

Without ignoring the need for immediate action, which Juventus has never shied away from during the trial, we emphasize that these are facts that still need to be examined by the judge,” the statement said.

Recall that on January 15 points were deducted from Juventus, but the Court of Appeal withdrew this decision until a new trial of the case.
