Former Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro handed 10-month jail sentence

Fabio Cannavaro has been sentenced to 10 months in prison for breaching orders to keep out of his property after it was seized by authorities.

The 41-year-old, who played for Parma, Internazionale, Juventus and Real Madrid, and captained Italy to their 2006 World Cup triumph, has been under investigation for tax evasion. In October, authorities in Naples seized almost €1m of goods linked to Cannavaro and his wife, as well as a €180,000 yacht.

However, his failure to adhere to their ruling after he was caught going for a swim the property’s swimming pool with his wife has led to Cannavaro – now the coach of the Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande – being handed a 10-month sentence. His wife, Daniela Arenoso, and his brother Paolo, who plays in Serie A for Sassuolo, were also given custodial sentences. All three have appealed and will therefore have their sentences suspended until a final judgment is made.

It has been reported that Cannavaro’s company Fd Service owes over €1m in unpaid taxes. The Italian Agency of Revenue apparently claims that FD Service underpaid on Corporation Tax, Regional Tax and VAT between 2005 and 2010.

Anybody following Parma news? Looks like they registered 200 players at infalted values to mask their debt. What a crook this Ghiradi is.

Sandro Melli:
“Since last year, I could see that Parma were buying seven, eight, ten players every day, with little or no technical ability.

“That was something strange, that I couldn’t understand. That’s when I realised there was no way out.

Sandro Melli:
less than €5m in gate receipts, commercial/merchasing revenues also less than €10m in most years
yet somehow its the owners fault for not pouring in money every year to cover losses for an impossible club .
Ghiradi's business model may have been wrong or inefficient but it doesn't help that the supporters and most stakeholders at Parma FC (and most other Italian clubs) expect some sugar daddy to bail them out every year.

Well it would be a breach of FFP laws now. What Ghiradi has done is outright criminal. It reminds me of Enron scandal in US. Enron CEO got 10 or 15 years for what he did.
