UEFA has opened an investigation into Juventus for "potential violations of the regulations on club licensing and financial fair play".
Meanwhile, the investigating judge of the Court of Turin who last October 12 rejected the requests for disqualification measures for Agnelli and the other suspects in the motivations, while recognizing the 'good faith' in the management of the capital gains, underlined that the methods with which the so-called 'salary maneuvers' of 2020 and 2021 have been carried out and can be considered "certainly illegal", to the point that "the existence of serious indications is shared".
On the issue of capital gains, Juventus may have been in good faith.
This is what emerges from the reasons for the decision with which Ludovico Morello, the investigating judge of the Court of Turin, rejected the requests for disqualification measures for Andrea Agnelli and other suspects in the investigation into the accounts of the Juventus club on 12 October.
In the light of the documents available at that time, the judge wrote that, if Juventus really complied with the standard practice, "it would be difficult to hypothesize a conscious, and therefore ultimately malicious, departure from the correct postal accounting criteria".
For Morello, however, "an accurate study" was appropriate.
However, the investigating judge, in the reasons given on 12 October last,
underlines that the ways in which Juventus carried out the so-called 'salary maneuvers' of 2020 and 2021 can be considered "certainly illegal", to the point that "the existence of serious indications is shared with the public prosecution".
However, on that occasion, the judge rejected the requests for a precautionary measure presented by the prosecutor for lack of risk of recurrence of the crime: the 'maneuvers' - we read - were linked to the covid emergency and therefore to a "historical period that is no longer current ".
