Andrea Agnelli (Italian pronunciation: [anˈdrɛːa aɲˈɲɛlli];[1][2] born 6 December 1975) is an Italian businessman. Since May 2010, Agnelli has served as chairman of Italian association football club Juventus,[3][4] which returned to Italian football dominance throughout the 2010s with nine consecutive record-breaking Serie A titles,[5][6][7] along with four consecutive national doubles and one domestic treble.[8] Under Agnelli's presidency, Juventus also returned to European competitiveness, reaching one UEFA Europa League semi-final and two UEFA Champions League finals.[9][10] In November 2022, he resigned his positions,[11][12] amid the Plusvalenze investigation.[13][14][15]

A member of the industrialist Agnelli family, he was a board member of Exor and Stellantis.[16] Appointed to the UEFA Executive Committee in 2015, Agnelli served as executive member and chairman of the European Club Association from 2017 to 2021,[17] when he resigned to join the European Super League project.[18][19]

Early life and family

[edit]

Born in 1975, Agnelli is the son of late Juventus chairman and senator Umberto Agnelli, CEO of FIAT from 1970 to 1976, and Donna Allegra Caracciolo di Castagneto (born 1945), first cousin of Marella Agnelli (1927–2019), born Donna Marella Caracciolo di Castagneto and daughter of Filippo Caracciolo, 8th Prince of Castagneto, 3rd Duke of Melito, and a hereditary patrician of Naples (1903–1965), and his wife, Donna Anna Visconti di Modrone (1903–1977). Along with Marella, widow of his uncle Gianni Agnelli, and Allegra, he is descendants of an old Neapolitan noble family that held the titles of Prince of Castagneto and Duke of Melito, among others. He was the last male member of the family to carry the Agnelli surname until the birth of his son Giacomo.[20][21] Agnelli is related to John Elkann, Lapo Elkann, and Alessandro Nasi, the cousin of Elkann.[22][23] Agnelli studied the International Baccalaureate at St Clare's, Oxford, and then at Bocconi University in Milan.[24]

Career

[edit]

During and after university, Agnelli started his career in the business world, including abroad in England and France at companies Iveco, Auchan Hypermarché, and back in Italy at Milan with Piaggio. He also spent several years in Switzerland working in marketing and development for Ferrari Idea S.A., where in 1999 he started his career, London-based Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, and Lausanne-based Philip Morris International from 2001 to 2004, where he was first in charge of marketing and sponsorships and then of external institutional communication. In November 2000, Agnelli moved to Paris to take on marketing responsibility for Uni Invest SA, a Sanpaolo IMI company specializing in the offer of asset management products. By 2005, he was back in Turin at IFIL.[25] In 2007, he set up his own financial holding company, Lamse.[26] He also cultivated his passion for golf, becoming managing director of the Royal Park Golf & Country Club I Roveri in 2008.[27][28] On 29 September 2008, he was appointed federal councilor of the Italian Golf Federation.[29] Together with Michele Dalai and Davide Dileo, he founded the publishing house ADD Editore in 2010.[30] He is on the advisory board of BlueGem Capital Partners LLP,[31] and he is also the president of the Piedmont Foundation for Oncology.[32][33]

During his career, Agnelli maintained ties with the Fiat world. From 2005 to 2006, he held strategic development positions within IFIL, which he left in 2007 to found Lamse.[34][35] On 30 May 2004, he became a board member of Fiat S.p.A.,[36] a position that he kept in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) since 12 October 2014;[25] starting from 17 January 2021, with the merger between FCA and Groupe PSA, he was appointed by Exor to become a non-executive director for a four-year term of the newly formed Stellantis.[37][38] Since 25 May 2006, he was also a director of the Industrial Financial Institute, which later became Exor, the holding company controlling the interests of the Agnellis.[39][40] In January 2023, Agnelli announced his resignation from the position in Stellantis,[41] effective at the close of the 2023 annual general meeting of shareholders,[42][43] and that he would not reapply for the role in Exor.[44][45][46] He remained on the board of Giovanni Agnelli B.V.[47]

In April 2010, John Elkann, Exor chief executive officer and Agnelli's cousin,[48][49][50] announced that Agnelli would join Jean-Claude Blanc in leading Juventus.[24] In May 2010, Agnelli was appointed chairman of the club's board of directors after the stakeholders assembly, and became the fourth member of the Agnelli family to run the football club after his father, his uncle, and his grandfather.[51][52][53] Elkann and the previous Juventus management led by Giovanni Cobolli Gigli and Blanc, had come under criticism from club's fans for the team's poor results during the 2009–10 Serie A,[54] and many Juventus ultras saw Agnelli as the rightful heir due to his family's long-time association with the club. Despite entering the job during a period when the club was still dealing with the aftermath of the controversial Calciopoli scandal,[55][56][57] he is credited with overseeing the club's transition into the Juventus Stadium and balancing their finances in wake of the late-2000s recession in Europe.[58][59] One of his first acts as new chairman was to appoint Sampdoria duo Giuseppe Marotta as director of sport and Luigi Delneri as new coach.[60][61][62]

On 22 May 2011, Agnelli appointed as the new coach Antonio Conte, former Juventus captain and fan favourite who had called him to propose himself for the role,[63][64][65] replacing Delneri after another disappointing season and seventh place in the league,[66] which precluded the club from any UEFA competition and was not acceptable for Agnelli, whose motto was "Playing for Juventus, working for Juventus, one goal: to win".[67] That same season under Conte, Juventus were undefeated and won the first scudetto under Agnelli.[68] Since becoming chairman, Juventus won nine scudetti in a row,[69] a record in Serie A, including five Coppa Italia titles,[70] of which four in a row since the 2014–15 Coppa Italia, five Supercoppa Italiana titles,[71] and reached two UEFA Champions League finals.[72]

Juventus

[edit]

Agnelli became the second third-generation member of the Fiat-owner family to be involved with the Italian football club Juventus. A tradition that started in the 1920s with his grandfather, Edoardo Agnelli, he was the most recent after his cousin, Edoardo Agnelli, during the 1980s, to be involved with the club. Dating back to the late 1940s through the 1950s his uncle, Gianni Agnelli, and since the mid-1950s to early 1960s his father, Umberto Agnelli, were associated with the club as presidents and latter as honorary presidents. His collaboration started from the 1998-99 season as an assistant in the commercial sector led by Romi Gai.[73]

In 1999, Juventus improved their own record as the first club of having won all five men's UEFA competitions by winning the Intertoto Cup, the next year was voted the seventh best of the FIFA Club of the Century poll, and in 2009 was placed second in the Continental Men's Clubs of the Century (1901–2000) statistical ranking by the IFFHS, the highest for an Italian team in both; by the early 2000s, the club had the third best revenue in Europe at over €200 million.[74] All this changed when Calciopoli hit the club,[52] with Agnelli being particularly critical of the management for not properly defending the club, which was acquitted and the leagues being regular;[75][76] it was Agnelli who built the club back up.[77] In the words of Fulvio Bianchi, early 2000s Juventus were "stronger than all those that came after, and had €250 million in revenue, being at the top of Europe, and 100 sponsors. It took ten years to recover and return to the top Italians, not yet Europeans: now the club makes over €300 million, but in the meantime Real, Bayern, and the others have taken off."[78]

On 19 May 2010, Agnelli was elected chairman of the club.[79][80][81] In doing so, after forty-eight years of absence, he became the fourth member of the Agnelli dynasty, after his grandfather, his uncle, and his father, to hold the club's premier executive charge.[82][83][84] Under his mandate from the 2010s, Juventus established a victorious cycle, during which they won the Italian football championship for nine consecutive Serie A seasons; they broke an eighty-two years national record of five consecutive league wins, which was first achieved by Juventus under Agnelli's grandfather, and established a new national record with nine consecutivi scudetti.[85] Among these stand out the 2011–12 Serie A,[86] which was won undefeated,[68] the 2013–14 Serie A season, which concluded with a record of 102 points,[87][88] and the 2015–16 Serie A,[89][90][91] which was won after an unprecedented comeback in the standings,[92][93][94] and represented the club's first domestic treble.[95] In the same period, Agnelli's Juventus set a further record of four consecutive domestic doubles,[96] and achieved one UEFA Europa League semi-final in 2014,[9] and two UEFA Champions League finals in 2015 and 2017;[97][98] the club narrowly missed, not without controversy, two Champions League semi-finals, first in 2016,[99] and then in 2018.[72] Among the many Juventus records the club already held, Juventus under Agnelli reached new ones, most recently, as of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, extending the club's own record with the most FIFA World Cup winners (27) during their careers at the team.[100][101][102]

On the sporting side, the Agnelli presidency included the expansion and modernization of the club's property portfolio from the Juventus Stadium,[103][104] the J-Museum,[105][106] the J-Hotel,[107][108] the J-Medical,[109] and the J-Village complexs,[110][111] to the renewal of the club's corporate identity by adopting a pictogram of a stilized black and white J, a letter that is not used in the Italian alphabet, as logo.[112] The Agnelli management established the second men's team, Juventus U23,[113][114][115] which won the 2019–20 Coppa Italia Serie C and was renamed Juventus Next Gen in August 2022,[116] and the first women's team, Juventus Women,[117] the latter of which immediately became multi-titled and became the first team to achieve a perfect season in 2020–21,[118] and pushed for the entry of the club into the world of electronic sports.[119][120][121] On the management side, after having promoted turnaround management through a renewal process aimed at overcoming the financial crisis in which the club had been stagnating for some years, he led Juventus to achieve results never before achieved in the economic sphere by an Italian football club.[122]

In regards to sports policy, Agnelli took a tougher position than that of the previous Juventus management,[77] led by Giovanni Cobolli Gigli and subsequently by Jean-Claude Blanc,[123] in the aftermath of the post-Calciopoli.[124][125] Several observers allege that Calciopoli and its aftermath were also a dispute within Juventus and between the club's owners,[126] including Franzo Grande Stevens and Gianluigi Gabetti who favoured Elkann over Agnelli as chairman,[127] and wanted to get rid of Luciano Moggi, Antonio Giraudo,[128][129] and Roberto Bettega, whose shares in the club increased.[130] Whatever their intentions, it is argued they condemned Juventus: first when Carlo Zaccone, the club's lawyer,[131] agreed for relegation to Serie B and point-deduction, when he made that statement because Juventus were the only club risking more than one-division relegation (Serie C),[132] and he meant for Juventus (the sole club to be ultimately demoted) to have equal treatment with the other clubs;[133] and then when Luca Cordero di Montezemolo retired the club's appeal to the Regional Administrative Court (TAR) of Lazio,[134] a controversial renounce,[135] for which Montezemolo and Elkann were thanked by then FIFA and CONI presidents, Sepp Blatter and Gianni Petrucci,[136][137] and that could have cleared the club's name and avoid relegation,[138][139] after FIFA and UEFA threatened to suspend the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) from international play.[140][141][142]

After being absolved as a club in the first justice proceedings,[143] the Calciopoli trials that came during Agnelli's presidency confirmed the acquittal for the club,[144][145][146] which was not liable by other Italian football clubs,[147] because the 2004–06 leagues were regular.[75][76][148] This led to a dispute between Juventus, the FIGC, and Inter Milan,[149] the club that controversially received the 2006 scudetto but was later charged of sporting illicit when it was time-barred by the statute of limitations in 2011; citing disparità di trattamento (disparity of treatment),[150] Juventus asked the two scudetti back and sued the FIGC for €443 million for damages caused by their 2006 relegation. Then-FIGC president Carlo Tavecchio offered to discuss reinstatement of the lost scudetti in exchange for Juventus dropping the lawsuit.[151] Nonetheless, Agnelli was also the promoter of what was widely labelled "the table of peace" of the 2010s.[152] Juventus continued to present new appeals for the two scudetti and the FIGC's damage claims;[153] these appeals were declared inadmissible mostly by competence purposes.[154]

In September 2012, Agnelli became the Italian member of the European Club Association (ECA).[155] On 24 July 2014, he became the director of the Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A,[25] and was nominated to be board member of the Foundation for General Mutuality in Professional Team Sports.[156] He initially said he would retire his Lega Serie A candidacy if Tavecchio was elected FIGC president.[157] On 8 September 2015, Agnelli was reelected as a member of the ECA executive board. He was also appointed by the executive board to join the UEFA Executive Committee on behalf of the association to represent its 220 member clubs alongside reelected chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge for 2015–17.[158][159][160] He was reelected in 2019.[161][162] In April 2021, Agnelli resigned from his positions as ECA chairman and UEFA Executive Committee to become a vice-chairman of The Super League, a company established with the aim to create the European Super League, an independent European football competition;[163] this project, which was strongly opposed by UEFA,[164] placed Agnelli with Joan Laporta of Barcelona and Florentino Pérez of Real Madrid, the three remaining main supporters of the Super League, in contrast with the continental football confederation.[165]

In April 2022, the FIGC's Federal court acquitted Juventus and other clubs regarding the Plusvalenze (capital gains) Serie A scandal.[166][167][168] Ahead of the 28 October 2022 shareholders' meeting, which was later postponed first to December 2022 and then to January 2023,[169] he wrote a letter saying that "the 21–22 financial year should be the last year in which we record direct impacts due to the pandemic ... . Juventus means competing at a high level for victory, every day and in every competition. Victory is a goal to which Juventus naturally aspires and every effort of all the men and women of Juventus will be directed towards victory, starting from the ongoing season. ... the economic-financial balance, that we lost during the pandemic years, must return to drive the club's strategic choices."[170] On 28 November 2022, Agnelli resigned as chairman of Juventus,[171] amid a sporting trial regarding the Plusvalenze scandal,[172][173][174] which in the case of Juventus represented 3.6% of the club's revenues during the investigated period,[175] related to the 2019–21 years,[176][177] after the capital gains case was reopened;[178][179][180] it was later revealed that during these years there were disagreements within the club,[181][182][183] including self-criticism of past transfers.[184][185] In the following weeks, he remained in office in prorogatio, which ended on 18 January 2023,[186] and was succeeded by Gianluca Ferrero.[187][188] He said that football is not economically sustainable and expressed his hope that the European Court of Justice would change its regulations.[189][190][191] In thirteen seasons, Agnelli won 19 trophies with the first men's team, 10 with the first women's team, and one with the second men's team,[104][192] which made it the most titled management in Juventus history.[193]

Awards

[edit]

In 2018, Agnelli was named Turinese Man of the Year by Turin's Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Agriculture, and Artisanship.[194][195] In December 2020, he won a Golden Foot award;[196] he was awarded the Golden Foot Prestige Award for the successes of Juventus under his management.[197][198][199]

Personal life

[edit]

On 27 August 2005, Agnelli married Emma Winter in a Roman Catholic ceremony in Villar Perosa, Piedmont, at the church of San Pietro in Vincoli. The wedding reception was held at Villa Agnelli, Donna Marella Agnelli's estate in Villar Perosa.[200] The couple have two children: Baya Agnelli (born on 24 May 2005 in Turin) and Giacomo Dai Agnelli (born on 16 December 2011 in Turin).[201][202]

After the end of his marriage with Winter, which was finalized in April 2016,[203][204][205] Agnelli has been engaged to the Turkish former model Deniz Akalin since 2015;[206][207] they knew each other for several years, being the ex-wife of Francesco Calvo, the former marketing manager of Juventus.[208][209] On 22 April 2017, the couple had a daughter, who was named Livia Selin;[210][211] her godfather was the incumbent president of UEFA, Aleksander Čeferin,[212][213] with whom Agnelli later came in contrast regarding the European Super League project.[214][215][216] The New York Times published a series of articles about the two and their relations.[217][218] He said that Čeferin remained his daughter's godfather, and that he continued to be a person of whom he had esteem.[219] On 31 October 2018, the couple's second daughter Vera Nil was born.[220] The couple got married on 29 April 2023 in Lisciano Niccone.[221]

[edit]

In 2014, some of Juventus' senior management, including Agnelli, were investigated by the public prosecutor's office of Turin on the management of tickets at the Juventus Stadium about the alleged infiltration of the 'Ndrangheta in the commercial management of the company's tickets, which Agnelli denied;[222] the public ministers of Turin did not formalise criminal charges against Juventus or its members,[223] closing the investigation three years later with a filing request as there were no links between the Juventus management and the groups and/or individual people involved in organized crime.[224] In 2016, prosecutor Ciro Santoriello acquitted Juventus and Agnelli of false accounting charges related to the 2015–16 years; not finding any irregularity, he dismissed the case.[225] On 18 March 2017, following the opening of a lawsuit by Giuseppe Pecoraro from the Turin Public Prosecutor's Office, Agnelli was referred by the FIGC's Attorney General along with three other club executives.[226] On 15 September, the FIGC reformulated its allegations, excluding a presumed Mafia association from the members of the incriminated club after Pecoraro's intervention to the Antimafia Commission in April;[227] the prosecutor asked for sanctions for the meetings of Agnelli with ultra groups and the sale of the tickets by the rest of the offenders beyond the limit allowed per person, which favoured ticket scalping.[228] On 25 September, Agnelli was banned for one year and fined €20,000, while Juventus were fined €300,000 for selling tickets to ultras; alleged connections to organized crime were not present in the ruling.[229] On 18 December, Agnelli's ban was lifted; he was required to pay a €100,000 fine, while the fine against Juventus doubled to €600,000.[230]

On 20 January 2023, Agnelli was suspended for two years from holding office in Italian football as punishment for capital gain violations, amid the Plusvalenza scandal, which is related to the capital gains and false accounting,[231] and the reopened Prisma case,[232][233] which started in November 2021;[234][235] a preliminary hearing for the Prisma case is scheduled for March 2023.[236][237] Juventus were docked 15 points,[238][239][240] which was unprecedented,[241][242][243] and was harsher than the point deduction recommended by the FIGC prosecutor,[244][245] who said that in the standings Juventus "must now finish behind Roma, outside the European competitions zone".[246] Juventus denied any wrongdoing,[247] and announced their intention to appeal against the FIGC's ruling to the Sport Guarantee Board of the Italian Olympic Committee, Italy's highest sporting court, which was made official on 30 January.[248][249][250] Citing the Calciopoli unequal treatment,[251] the club lawyers stated that the sentence "constitute a clear disparity of treatment against Juventus and its managers compared to any other company or member. We consider this to be a blatant injustice also for millions of fans, which we trust will soon be remedied in the next court."[252] In a precedent case dating back to 2008 involving the 2004 budgets of Inter Milan and Milan, they were acquitted because "the fact does not constitute a crime",[253] while Cesena were docked 3 points after repeated infrigiments of regulations in 2018;[254] other cases resulted in fines.[255][256][nb 1] Controversy ensued when videos of Santoriello, Prisma prosecutor, mocking Juventus emerged.[258][259] In a 2019 conference,[260] he said: "I admit that I am a big Napoli fan and I hate Juventus. As a fan, the important thing is Napoli. As a prosecutor I am obviously anti-Juventus, against the thieves on the pitch, and (yet) I had to write case dismissed."[261] This prompted a reaction from the Italian Sports Minister, Andrea Abodi,[262][263] and former Juventus chairman Giovanni Cobolli Gigli.[264] In a second FIGC trial, Agnelli was banned from Italian football for 16 more months and fined €60,000.[265]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ While the Plusvalenza case and its punishment is due to capital gains about footballers and their alleged inflated price, a widespread practice in the football world, the cases of Chievo and Cesena involved footballers that did not exist, in the sense that the two clubs did not enter into any contract. Their punishments were 3 and 15 points docked, respectively; the two sentences were not final and did not pass judgement, as the two companies went bankrupt.[255] Additionally, the original punishment for Juventus was €800,000,[257] which was significantly higher than any past punishments but was in line in capital gains resulting in fines for the companies.[255]

The Juventus defence, among other things, objects that a sum of several Articles 1 (unfair and dishonest sporting conduct) cannot lead to an indictment for Article 6 (sporting offence), using for example the metaphor that so many defamations do not carry a murder conviction: an unimpeachable objection. ... Hence the grotesque concept of 'standings altered without any match-fixing'. The 'Calciopoli' rulings state that there is no match-fixing. That the league under investigation, 2004–2005, is to be considered regular. But that the Juventus management has achieved effective standings advantages for Juventus FC even without altering the individual matches. In practice, Juventus were convicted of murder, with no one dead, no evidence, no accomplices, no murder weapon. Only for the presence of a hypothetical motive.

FIGC's actions in relegating Juventus and handing the title to Inter Milan were somewhat peculiar. Of course, Moggi and Juventus deserved punishment; that is not up for dispute. However, the severity of the ruling and the new location for the Scudetto was unprecedented and arguably should never have happened. The final ruling in the Calciopoli years later judged that Juventus had never breached article 6. As a result, the Serie A champions should never have encountered a shock 1–1 draw away to Rimini in the season's curtain-raiser. Nor should they have trounced Piacenza 4–0 in Turin or handed a 5–1 thrashing away to Arezzo in Tuscany. The findings stated that some club officials had violated article 6, but none had originated from Juventus. FIGC created a structured article violation with their decision-making. This means that instead of finding an article 6 breach, several article 1 violations were pieced together to create evidence damning to warrant relegation from Italy's top flight. Article 1 violations in Italian football usually command fines, bans, or points deductions, but certainly not relegation.

Finally point 1), the so-called positive part of the motivations, that is, in fact everything is regular. And then the scandal of 'Scommettopoli' [the Italian football scandal of 2011] in which it's coming out that the 2010–2011 league [won by Milan] as a whole with tricks is to be considered really and decidedly irregular? The Chief Prosecutor of Cremona, Di Martino, says so for now, while sports justice takes its time as always, but I fear that many will soon repeat it, unless everything is silenced. With all due respect to those who want the truth and think that Moggi has objectively become the 'scapegoat'. Does the framework of information that does not investigate, analyse, compare, and take sides out of ignorance or bias seem slightly clearer to you?

Juventus have been acquitted, the offending leagues (2004/2005 and 2005/2006) have been declared regular, and the reasons for the conviction of Luciano Moggi are vague; mostly, they condemn his position, that he was in a position to commit a crime. In short, be careful to enter a shop without surveillance because even if you don't steal, you would have had the opportunity. And go on to explain to your friends that you're honest people after the morbid and pro-sales campaign of the newspapers. ... a club has been acquitted, and no one has heard of it, and whoever has heard of it, they don't accept it. The verdict of 2006, made in a hurry, was acceptable, that of Naples was not. The problem then lies not so much in vulgar journalism as in readers who accept the truths that are convenient. Juventus were, rightly or wrongly, the best justification for the failures of others, and it was in popular sentiment, as evidenced by the new controversies concerning 'The System.' But how? Wasn't the rotten erased? The referees since 2006 make mistakes in good faith, the word of Massimo Moratti (the only 'honest'). ... it isn't a question of tifo, but of a critical spirit, of the desire to deepen and not be satisfied with the headlines (as did Oliviero Beha, a well-known Viola [Fiorentina] fan, who, however, drew conclusions outside the chorus because, despite enjoying it as a tifoso, he suffered as a journalist. He wasn't satisfied and went into depth. He was one of the few).

[p. 48] Corrado De Biase, the head of the investigations office at the time of the [1980s] betting scandal from 1980, ... about Juventus and the work of Zaccone, its lawyer: 'I can't know why the Juventus owners have moved in a certain way, but I would say, 99%, that the affair was skilfully managed by the leaders of the Turin club, starting with the request from Zaccone, who left everyone stunned. Zaccone isn't incompetent, as many believe, but he was only an actor in this story.' ... The point that makes me think that Zaccone acted on input from the owners is another, namely the way in which the top management of Juventus moved, with that fake appeal to the TAR. How, I wonder, you dismiss the executives, practically pleading guilty, then you watch inert and impassive a media and judicial destruction against your club and then you're threatening to resort to the TAR? It's the concept of closing the barn when the oxen have fled, if you think about it. ... [p. 50] I, on my own, can only reiterate the concept already expressed: a penalty of 8/10 points, a fine, and a ban of Moggi and Giraudo for 10/12 months, this was the appropriate penalty in my opinion. Any parallel with the story of 1980 is unthinkable: here there're no traces of offence, nor of money or checks. The environmental offence isn't a crime covered by any code, unless we're talking about air pollution.'

We don't have certain elements to be able to say that at that moment there was an attempt to take over Juventus, but those figures are impressive. Furthermore, there are some anomalies of the Agnellis which leave the door open to this type of hypothesis. The Calciopoli investigation was born out of a Turin investigation by the prosecutor Guariniello on the Juventus doping case, [in which] the interceptions of Moggi's conversations with the referees emerge. Guariniello sends the files to the boss Maddalena, notes that there are no crimes from a criminal point of view, but perhaps from a sporting point of view. Maddalena keeps the files for three months, then sends them to the [Italian] Football Federation. This period lasts a little over a year. Do you really [want to believe] that Juve didn't know what was going on? I have the impression that the Agnelli family took advantage of this opportunity to stop an attempt to take over the Moggi-Giraudo-Bettega company.

If Zaccone, who is a man of value and experience, would have had the mandate to avoid the disaster he would have moved in a different way, in the sense that he would have pointed out these 'anomalies' in the time between the trial and the announcement of the verdicts. That, in fact, was the right moment to threaten to appeal to the TAR, when the sentences had not yet been written, but had to be done in camera caritatis, asking for a meeting with [p. 49] Ruperto, Sandulli, and Palazzi, and not in front of the journalists of La Gazzetta dello Sport. ... Please note that I'm not discussing the high strategy of the forensic art, but the basic principles, the ABC of the profession, the things that are taught to the boys who come to the studio to do a traineeship: if you, the defence attorney, think you have weapons to play, you ask for a meeting with the judge and the public prosecution, in the period between the trial and the verdict, and point out that, if the response is judged too severe, you will use them. And here there were weapons in industrial quantities. Then, in the face of a fait accompli, who takes the responsibility of stopping a machine that grinds billions of euros, so as to be the sixth industry in the country?'

The Calciopoli scandal in 2006 resulted in the Bianconeri being relegated from Serie A and stripped of two league titles, with the club and former general manager Luciano Moggi accused of having an exclusive relationship with referee designators. However, civil and criminal trials have since determined that Juventus and Moggi did not enjoy such an advantage and that the punishments handed out in 2006 were based on incomplete evidence, and Moggi's prison sentence was also written off last week following his appeal at the Court of Cassation. As a result of the subsequent findings, Juventus have filed a lawsuit against the FIGC and are claiming €443m for lost revenue and damage to their reputation.

Moggi and Giraudo, therefore, 'polluted' the system: a term that serves to dodge the fact that no judge has ever returned enough evidence to affirm that the league (the subject of investigation was only 2004–05) has actually been altered. Indeed, in the first instance sentence we basically read the opposite.

Let's assume that there are these phone calls in which Juventus says: 'I'm inflating the price of a player', therefore 'confessing': is it false accounting? And how bad is it? In the words of ... lawyer Francesco Andrianopoli ... 'A clarification: Juventus did not engage in a false/fraudulent operation with these capital gains. In the field of financial statements, it is fraud when an entry that does not exist is entered in the financial statements. For example: I sell an asset for €100,000, but I don't actually own that asset. When, on the other hand, items are entered in the balance sheet that have been valued incorrectly, excessively, or in incorrect years, that is not a 'falsehood' but an 'incorrect entry', which is a balance sheet irregularity but not a crime or an offence. What we are talking about, in terms of capital gains, is not 'false' data, because there are two teams that exchange two players and say: 'mine is worth 20, yours is worth 20, let's make this exchange so you make a capital gain and I make a capital gain' whereas the 'real' value (which is impossible to determine for those players) is not 20 but something less. At this point, there is no falsehood: first of all because not the entire value is fictional: perhaps those players, instead of being worth 20 and 20, were worth (if anyone can ascertain it) 10 and 10, but certainly not 0 and 0. Secondly: on their balance sheets, each of the two teams put both the positive entry of +20 and the negative entry of -20. So it is not the situation mentioned above where a non-existent (false) asset is sold and an operation is carried out by introducing only a positive (fraudulent) component to the balance sheet. In addition to the immediate capital gain of 20 million, in subsequent years the team will find their costs increased by 20 million. So there is no positive result on the long-term financial statements; there is the problem that these items end up on different financial statements, but that is very different from saying that they are 'false'.

We can discuss, if anything, the proportions of the penalty, whether they are fair, limited or you exaggerate. As in 2006, in any case, an inconsistency already emerges. How is it possible that other companies have not been sanctioned, when the phenomenon of capital gains was, and is, very widespread? Is it possible to make capital gains on your own? The answer, of course, is 'no', but the verdict, at least so far, does not seem to take this into account. Therefore, perplexities emerge about the umpteenth fury, as in the days of Calciopoli, towards the Black and White club.'

Those who follow the investigation will be thinking: 'And no, for Juventus it is different, because being listed they should have applied Par. 45 of IAS 38 and not to register the capital gain!'

The sporting sentence condemns Juventus for having concealed the exchange nature of the crossed operations in order to avoid the risk of not being able to enroll the capital gain. ... Can you punish for this reason, despite the fact that Juventus have declared that they have never applied this accounting policy in the past (and therefore never declared in public budgets)? Even though this accounting treatment would seem to be applied by very few football clubs in Europe (Consob says at least two)?
