Juventus Owner Slams Sports Justice After Conviction

In a rare interview, John Elkann, who controls the holding that owns Juventus, addressed the recent sentence and paved the way for a future reconciliation talking to La Repubblica.

“The injustice is evident. Others pointed it out too, not just Bianconeri fans. We will defend ourselves with determination to protect the interest of our supporters and everybody that loves football. We hope to be able to reform the sport along with the other teams and the government.”

“Juventus are the most beloved and followed club, and it represents Italian football. We are not the problem and will always be part of the solution. The future of Serie A is at stake, since it’s becoming marginal and irrelevant.”

“In 100 years, we have gone through stretches of great satisfactions, and others of major difficulties. We have won 11 Scudetti in the last 20 years, 6 Supercups, 5 Coppe Italia, plus some trophies with the Women’s team. The Italy squads that took home the 2006 World Cup and Euro 2020 had a Juventus backbone. With Argentina triumphing, we are the side with the most World champions.”

According to the publication, the motivations for the 15-point deduction will be published either Friday or Monday. The Bianconeri have already announced that they will appeal. The next degree of justice can only confirm, cancel, or send the trial back to the previous court due to formal irregularities, not reduce the punishment. The new brass of the Old Lady will pay more attention to domestic matters, while Andrea Agnelli attended just one Serie A meeting since the creation and demise of the Super League.
