“Juventus Faces Possible Demotion in Italian League Standings Due to Sanctions”

In January, the Court of Appeal of the local federation imposed a 15-point deduction penalty for Juventus for having, according to sports justice, regularly recorded exaggerated capital gains in its accounts when selling some players.

But the Sports Guarantee Board of the Italian Olympic Committee, to which Juventus had recourse, temporarily returned these points to the Bianconeri in April by requesting a review of the sanctions imposed on him.

Juventus, who plays a match against Empoli on Monday evening in the thirty-sixth stage of the Italian League, is currently in second place.

In the event that the request of the Public Prosecutor is accepted, the team will drop to seventh place in the standings, with little chance of regaining fourth place, the last qualifier for the Champions League.

In principle, Juventus has a new opportunity to file an appeal before the Sports Insurance Council to protest a possible new penalty, which suggests extending the decision on this case until after the end of the league on June 4.
