Juventus claim the civil trial confirmed the club’s “non-involvement” with the Calciopoli events.
Former director general Luciano Moggi was found guilty of sporting fraud by the Naples Tribunal today, while Juve had their appeal for damages rejected.
“Today’s decision stated Juventus’ non involvement with the matters charged,” read a statement. “The Club was taken to the court of Naples as civilly liable entity by way of objective liability according to Art. 2049 Italian Civil Code.
“The decision emerged from the result of a thorough hearing and from the analysis of all evidences, clashed with the reality of an inaccurate sports law which severely penalized Juventus, the sole club damaged due to the removal of two titles – following the victories achieved on the pitch – with consequent relegation and related extensive losses.
“Juventus will continue their legitimate campaigns in order to restore the equality of treatment.”
