The Federal Court of Appeal will decide whether or not the FIGC can reopen their investigation into Juventus’ alleged usage of falsified capital gains.

Calciomercato.com details how the federal prosecutor Giuseppe Chiné and his office have asked the Federal Court of Appeal to allow them to reopen their investigation into the alleged usage of falsified capital gains, claiming that new information coming from the Turin Public Prosecutor Office’s Prisma investigation changes the landscape of the situation.

Juventus were previously acquitted twice in sporting court for the usage of falsified capital gains. The Prisma investigation switched focus from the figures involved in the deals, which famously used Transfermarkt valuations in the federal prosecutor’s case, to the various intercepted communications and documents, which paint a more complete picture of the accusations.

Should the case be reopened, Chiné and his office would immediately request new sanctions, which could range from a fine to a point deduction. It’s unlikely that a relegation request will be made, since that would require the prosecution to switch from a charge of violation of paragraph 1 of Article 31 to a violation of paragraph 2, which is far more serious.
