The Federal Court of Appeals has accepted the FIGC Prosecutor’s request to reopen the ‘plusvalenza’ trial against Juventus and handed them a 15-point penalty, to be applied this season.
Italian news agency ANSA report that FIGC prosecutor Giuseppe Chiné requested that the court reopen proceedings against Juve following the Prisma investigation, which investigated the club’s financial dealings, including alleged ‘under the table’ payments to their players during the COVID pandemic.
The Federal Court accepted the case and reopened sporting proceedings against Juventus and their executives, but the other clubs involved have been acquitted.
Chiné had originally asked for a nine-point deduction for Juventus and suspensions for Andrea Agnelli, Fabio Paratici, Federico Cherubini and the remaining board of directors.
The Federal Court of Appeals has instead decided to hand Juventus a 15-point penalty. The deduction puts them in 11th place in the league, alongside Empoli and Bologna.
The Bianconeri are expected to appeal the decision via CONI.
