The former executives are alleged to have committed financial felonies while they were in charge of the Turin giants.

The case regards allegedly inflated values of certain transfers in the club’s balance sheets and irregularities in an agreement between the club and players for salary cuts during the pandemic.

Juve announced at the start of the pandemic that players had agreed to take a big pay cuts for four months to enable the club to make ends meet during the health emergency.

The club, however, allegedly made secret payments to players, who only gave up one month’s salary.

In total there are about a dozen suspects, and the charges against them include stock manipulation, obstruction of supervision and false accounting.

Juve were docked 10 Serie A points in the 2022-23 season over the allegedly inflated values assigned to transfer moves.
