Juventus, the plea deal is official and there is no penalty. For the bianconeri, Europe is no longer at risk
Juventus asked for a plea deal and got it. Now it is also official. No penalties for the Bianconeri this season – apart from the ten points already awarded – and not even the Serie B that many, especially on social media, were asking for
A heavy fine, 700 thousand euros, and nothing more. Therefore, the Bianconeri could even enter Europe next season if they manage to finish the championship in a valid classification position. And also for next year, the one that must be the one of the relaunch after two years without titles, there is no risk. In short, an agreement has been found, as was in the air, and things are in the best condition for the Bianconeri people. Europe is therefore not at risk, unless, of course, UEFA’s intervention arrives, which could overturn the situation like any Alessandro Borghese. We are joking of course, and this ruling was also commented to free.it by lawyer Afeltra. Who spoke in this way.
Juventus, the words of the lawyer
“The Bianconeri have decided to arrive at this situation which, in my opinion, is the right one for Juventus’ lawyers to be able to definitively close any debt with the past with this competitive season. We have to remind our readers that a plea bargain is not an admission of guilt or responsibility: a plea bargain allows both parties to agree on a penalty.
UEFA President Ceferin (Lapresse)
“Without mutual concessions and without mutual acknowledgement of responsibility. The plea bargain, despite being considered in the popular vernacular as an admission of guilt, is in reality not a conviction. It remains a pre-trial decision in which the parties, in order to avoid the risk of a heavy penalty, identify a legal situation that suits them both. One renounces to ask for a heavier sanction, the other renounces to ask for an acquittal, and an agreement is reached on the size of the sanction’. In short, an agreement found.
