On Friday, Italian sports justice acquitted all eleven clubs, including Juventus of Turin and Naples, and the sixty leaders prosecuted for possible accounting fraud during player transfers.

Although it has not yet published its reasons, the Court of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) thus seems to agree entirely with the clubs which disputed the accusations of the federal prosecutor of having overvalued the selling prices of certain players and thus recorded in their accounts unjustified capital gains.

We summarized these dubious practices for you in a previous article.

Prison sentences required against the incriminated presidents

At the opening of the procedure on Tuesday, the prosecutor had notably requested a one-year suspension against the boss of Juventus Andrea Agnelli and eleven months against the president of Naples Aurelio De Laurentiis.

Apart from Juve and Napoli, the other three top clubs dismissed were Sampdoria Genoa, Genoa and Empoli.

Two clubs from Serie B (Parma and Pisa), two from Lega Pro (3rd division, Pescara and Pro Vercelli) and two no longer existing, Novara and Chievo Verona, were also concerned.

The clubs concerned mainly risked a fine.

But the sixty leaders and representatives referred in a personal capacity risked sanctions that could go as far as suspension.

All the clubs disputed the criteria used by the federal prosecutor to quantify the value of the players and questioned the prices actually paid during the transfers.
