Juventus Turin will be well sanctioned. The Turin club, which initially received 15 points for fraud in the balance sheet before having the sanction suspended to be re-evaluated, will finally suffer penalty points. The Court of Appeal of the Federcalcio announced on Monday 22 May a new penalty of 10 points, after a downward revision of the initial penalty, which complicates Juventus’ chances of playing in the next Champions League. .

This new penalty therefore brings Juventus back from 2nd to 7th place in the Serie A standings. Defeated on Monday against Empoli (3-1), the bianconeri remain five points behind the last Champions League qualifying place occupied by Milan (4th). , but next Sunday they will have the opportunity to put the Milanese under pressure, given that the two clubs face off on the 37th matchday of the championship.
