The general director of Serie A, Luigi De Siervo, has ruled on the 15-point sanction against Juventus and confesses that he hopes it will be reconsidered.
The Bianconeri are fighting against that as it now means their team will finish outside the top four unless they can pull off a miracle.
The Bianconeri were penalized for the use of capital gains, but they are the only club involved and no one else has been penalized yet.
Max Allegri’s side have vowed to appeal and have the deductions overturned and De Siervo is hoping that will happen.
He says via Tuttojuve:
“My disappointment is related to the fact that we wanted to intervene during the championship: this can be an element of alteration. For the rest, so far we are talking about criminal hypotheses and open procedures: the hope is that this sanction for capital gains can be reconsidered because it is asymmetric both at the European and Italian level.
Juve FC says
The punishment is unfair to us and because other clubs have not been punished it seems that we are being unfairly targeted.
After working so hard to get our season back on track, it is unfair to our players that this deduction continues and could set a negative trend in Italian football.
