The Turin giants will have to pay a 10 million euro fine, with a further 10 million euros on the line if the club’s budgets for the years 2023, 2024 and 2025 do not comply with UEFA’s accounting requirements, European football’s ruling body said.
Juve are likely to be replaced by Fiorentina, who finished just below them in Serie A last season.
