Nothing will happen. Palazzi released this statement along with the archiving of the whole case due to the statue of limitations being exceeded. There is no sweeping under the rug anymore. The statement itself already did that.
Palazzi identified all that was wrong with the initial verdict and then closed the case up by saying…(I’m summarizing) “unfortunately we have exceeded permissible timeframes that would have permitted corrective measures”. He represents the FIGC when he says that so that is it from their end. “We messed up and that is that”.
The scudetto being revoked is all that can occur because that has nothing to do with the statute of limitations and that is likely where it will end.
Some may recall that months ago I said this whole thing would end behind closed doors amidst wine and cigar smoke. It would allow all to save face and proceed with their usual lives. Here it is.
Juventus can say “we tried our best and now Inter lost the title they never won”
Inter can say “we feel we did nothing wrong and never went to Serie B”
FIGC can say “we tried our best but ran out of time”
The morons regardless of fanbase will feel appeased.
In the meantime come August it is business as usual. Nothing changes.
My feeling is that everyone knew all along how this would end as that was likely decided well in advance. Why else did Juve put so little pressure on the federation, why else wasn’t Inter too concerned (even skipping court dates) and why else did the FIGC wait until the 5 year anniversary to figure shit out?
