Italian Public Prosecution Accuses Luis Suarez of Cheating on "Italian Language Exam"
The public prosecutor’s office in Perugia, Italy, has opened an investigation because of its suspicion that Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez cheated in the Italian language test that he took last Thursday, in preparation for a transfer that has become very unlikely to Juventus, the league champion in the past nine seasons.
Since Suarez is a player from outside the European Union, he cannot defend the colors of Juventus because the latter has reached the maximum number of players allowed from outside the European Union, which forced the 33-year-old to undergo an Italian language examination Thursday in Perugia in order to obtain citizenship since his wife Italian.
Suarez, who became out of Barcelona’s accounts after the arrival of Dutch coach Ronald Koeman to succeed Kiki Setien, passed the language examination, but that was not enough for him to join Juventus because there is no way for him to obtain Italian citizenship before the summer transfer window closes on the fifth of October, according to what New coach for Turin giants Andrea Pirlo reported.
But it now appears that Suarez is in a bigger problem than his inability to join the "Serie A" champion, after "the investigation showed that the topics discussed during the exam had been agreed upon in advance with the candidate and that the mark was awarded to him even before the exam," according to the prosecution. The year.
According to public prosecution documents obtained by the local media, Stefania Spina, one of the people targeted in the investigation, said, "What do you think, are we going to make him fail? Today I had my last (language with Suarez) lesson and I must prepare it because he does not speak a single word" in the language Italian.
In response to a question from her interlocutor on the level that Suarez must pass in Italian, Spina replied, "He does not have (to exceed any level), he will succeed, because with a salary of 10 million (euros) per season, you cannot make him fail" in his test until If he does not know how to conjugate verbs and speaks infinitive. "
The process of applying for Italian citizenship has sparked many criticism on social media because this procedure usually requires between two and four years, but it has been accelerated to serve the former Liverpool striker in order to help him join Juventus.
The issue is not only related to the short period of time for obtaining citizenship, but also on the results of the language examination of category "B", which usually takes between one and three months to be issued, but the Uruguayan got it after a few hours.
"Can I please obtain citizenship? I lived here for 20 years. My grandmother was born in Bologna. My great-grandfather fought alongside (Giuseppe) Garibaldi (one of the symbols of the unification of Italy in the nineteenth century),” one of the applicants wrote on Twitter. I think my Italian is better than Suarez. "
Another said, "I lived in Italy for 40 years and married an Italian 12 years. I paid taxes and what I owe only and exclusively in Italy. I wrote books in Italian ... It takes four years to obtain Italian citizenship."
In light of the difficulty of obtaining citizenship to join Juventus, it seems that Suarez is now on his way to the Spanish capital to defend the colors of Atlético de Madrid, especially after the latter abandoned his striker Alvaro Morata, who will sign in the next few hours his return contract to the "old lady" on loan.
