More leaked calls are emerging in the Juventus capital gains case as the Bianconeri struggle to defend their conduct on the transfer market in recent seasons.
Investigators believe the Bianconeri were involved in deliberately false accounting and intercepted phone calls between their executives revealing dirty deals were actually made.
Now a few leaks have surfaced and the latest is a conversation between Maurizio Arrivabene and Stefano Cerrato as they discussed the amount of capitalization the club needed.
According to a Tuttomercatoweb report, Arrivabene told Cerrato’s financial director: “That the servers are calm, we had to do a capital increase of 650 million, not 400 [ … ] to heal”
Cerrato replied: “To cure everything in one hit, yes.”
Juve FC says
These revelations show us wrong and continue to show that there is something seriously wrong with our behavior for some time.
However, raising capital is normal in business and should not be a big problem in the case, unless it is fraudulently related to the case.
The club have maintained that they have done nothing wrong and as fans we are forced to believe them for now.
Hopefully, they can prove in court that everything they’ve done so far hasn’t been against any law, which should give them a big win.
