Following a fresh hearing into the transfer process, Juventus was penalised 10 points in Serie A
Posted : 22 May 2023
Following a new inquiry into the team's prior transfer practises, Juventus had 10 points deducted.
Juve was first given a 15-point punishment in January; but, in April, Italy's highest sporting court reversed that judgement and demanded that the issue be reexamined.
Prior to the team's away game against Empoli on Monday, the new rule was revealed.
Juve is now seventh in Serie A, outside of the slots necessary to qualify for Europe as a result of the penalty.
Before Monday's decision, Napoli had a 17-point lead over Juve for second place in the Serie A standings and had already won the championship.
The Italian Football Federation (FIGC) appeals court's 15-point punishment against Juventus was overturned in April by Italy's Sports Guarantee Board.
It requested that the appeals court change the penalties imposed on the team and a few significant individuals, notably former vice-chairman Pavel Nedved.
Former chairman Andrea Agnelli, former CEO Maurizio Arrivabene, and sporting directors Federico Cherubini and Fabio Paratici all received lengthy suspensions that have since been maintained.
Juve will be two points behind AC Milan, who hold the last Champions League position, with two games remaining if they defeat Empoli.
Twelve current and former senior club leaders, including Agnelli, are currently involved in criminal investigations into Juve's accounting methods.
