Increasingly Likely Juventus Will Get 15 Serie A Points Back . It seems increasingly likely that Juventus will see the 15-point penalty removed pending a new trial, immediately sending them into third place in Serie A on 59 points.
The Bianconeri have docked 15 points in January for artificially inflating transfer fees to boost capital gains.
Increasingly Likely Juventus Will Get 15 Serie A Points Back
Their appeal was held today in front of the Collegio di Garanzia over three hours and a verdict is expected soon, but could take up to five days to be delivered.
There are some clues, as the FIGC did not take part in the appeal, so their role was taken by CONI prosecutor for sport Ugo Taucer.
He confessed the reasoning behind the 15-point penalty “has a lack of clarity in the motivation that must be appreciated and evaluated by a new judgment.”
This points towards a middle ground with the entire situation being punted to a different court of appeal for a new trial.
If this option is taken, Juventus will receive the 15 points back pending the new trial, which could take a long time to resolve.
It would mean Juve immediately leap from seventh place on 44 points up to third with 59, ahead of Roma, Milan and Inter, only two points behind Lazio.
