Despite the resignation and a statement laying out the case for the defence, there are still reports an arrest warrant is being prepared for former Juventus President Andrea Agnelli and Tottenham director Fabio Paratici.
The entire Board of Directors resigned abruptly on Monday evening, with a new set of directors to be appointed in January.
There were some suggestions that the resignations were a bid to take some of the legal heat off the club and themselves, but it does not seem to have worked.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, news agency ANSA and more, the authorities in Turin have prepared an arrest warrant for Agnelli and the other 14 who had already received a warning they were under investigation last month.
That list includes former Juventus director of sport Paratici, who left the club last year to take over at Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.
A statement on the official Juventus website goes to great pains to point out that financial fraud was not one of the accusations.
Nonetheless, there are various allegations linked to that, including false statements, obstruction of financial authorities and false paperwork.
In all, there were 16 ‘people’ under investigation, including Juventus as a club.
