Folks asking why Juve singled out and not other clubs. Here’s why (I think)..
1. This trial was an appeal.
2. In the original trial, 9 clubs (inc Juve) were charged. They were all cleared.
3. However, prosecutors lodged appeal for a 2nd trial after the “Prisma” investigation…
which is a civil investigation based on false accounting + misleading the stock exchange (and led to Juve replacing their entire board) uncovered NEW evidence. This evidence concerns Juve, but not the other 8 clubs originally charged. It does concern 5 other clubs.
4. Those 5 clubs were not involved in today’s proceedings because they weren’t in the original trial, unlike Juve. They can still be charged (decision Feb 22).
5. In addition, Juve facing Prisma investigation (civil case), possibly another sporting case over false accounting and a UEFA investigation to determine if they misled FFP.(Gabriel Marcotti)
