The Italian government reacts to the scandal surrounding Juventus. “We need to find out”

First a word of introduction. Juventus is a listed company, so its financial situation is monitored not only by football authorities, but also by state authorities, including the Guardia di Finanza, a police department that deals with economic crimes. Artificially inflating the value of players – of which the Turians are accused – makes Juventus de facto unfairly inflate the value of their shares. Creative accounting, which falsified the real picture of the clubs’ finances, has already cost Juventus 15 negative points, which not only made the “Old Lady” out of the championship fight, but also reduced her chances for European cups. However, this is not the end of the scandal, which you can read more about here:

Out of 62 transfers that raise doubts of the Italian federation and law enforcement authorities, as many as 42 were carried out by Turin. Politicians have spoken about the new scandal.

– We are waiting for the justification of the verdict, because it is as important as the decisions made. We have to wait to find out what the actual reasons for this punishment were. Were such transfer practices used by only one club, or were they part of a larger and more widespread system. This dilemma will be resolved by the justification of the verdict, says Andrea Abodi, the Italian sports minister.

Well, because suspicious transfers were also carried out by Inter Milan or Napoli. No one doubts a certain suspicious Napoli deal. Today, Transfermarkt values ​​super-sniper Victor Osimhen at €70 million, and his market value could be up to twice that. The problem is that Napoli paid 75 million euros for him already 2.5 years ago, when he had only one successful season in Lille. But when we take a closer look, this transfer hides a few secrets.

Suspicions aroused other transfers that summer between Napoli and Lille. The French club received: Orestis Karnezis for over five million euros, Claudio Manzi for four, Ciro Palmieri for seven and Luigi Liguori for four. A total of €20 million for players who… haven’t even made their Ligue 1 debut.

– The Italian state intends to understand the mechanism of artificial overvaluation of companies and fictitious capital gains. The Ministry of Economy and Finance wonders whether the current law is sufficient. We do not rule out changes in the regulations. Regulations may change and we have even started the appropriate analysis. Everyone says that this phenomenon is taking place, but if it is, I do not think that the state can recognize these fictitious profits – said Giancarlo Giorgetti, Minister of Economy and Finance, quoted by “Tuttosport”.

We should know the finale of the scandal only at the end of February
