Juventus Turin receives 10 penalty points after sanction review

Juventus Turin will be well sanctioned. The Turin club, which had initially been awarded 15 points for accounting fraud before seeing its sanction suspended to be reassessed, will finally suffer penalty points. The Italian Football Federation’s Court of Appeal announced on Monday May 22 a new penalty of 10 points, after a downward revision of the initial sanction, which complicates Juventus’ chances of playing in the next Champions League. .

This new penalty therefore pushes Juventus back from 2nd to 7th provisional place in the Serie A standings, five points from the last qualifying place for the Champions League occupied by AC Milan (4th). The Bianconeri can however come back to within two points of the Rossoneri in the event of success in Empoli on Monday evening, and this before facing the Milanese next Sunday, which maintains their chances.
