Juventus board resigns after phone tap scandal

ROME, May 11 (Reuters) - Juventus's board resigned on Thursday, the club said in a statement, after days of press revelations over embarrassing telephone interceptions involving its top management.

The Italian Football Federation is investigating the content of tapped telephone conversations involving Juve general manager Luciano Moggi talking of refereeing appointments for games with a Football Federation official responsible for selecting match officials.

"The board has tendered its resignation," Juventus said, without offering any explanation.

The case has rapidly snowballed, with public prosecutors in Turin, Rome and Naples now reportedly investigating alleged widespread malpractice involving referees and several Serie A clubs.

Juve Board Resigns!

As allegations of corruption continue to swirl around Juventus, the club has announced that its entire board of directors has submitted its resignation to the shareholders and called a shareholders' meeting for the 29th of June 2006.

The Juventus board members are:

President Franzo Grande Stevens, vice-president Roberto Bettega, general manager Antonio Giraudo, general director Luciano Moggi, Carlo Sant' Albano, Jean Claude Blanc, Stefano Bertola, Giancarlo Cerutti, Luigi Chiappero, Andrea Pininfarina, Fabrizio Prete and Claudio Saracco.

This latest develpment comes as exposure of the extent of the scandal that is rocking Italian football to the core continues. La Gazzetta dello Sport today reported that the Napoli magistrates investigating alleged wrong-doings by Juventus director Luciano Moggi and associates during the 2004/2005 season have revealed the names of the teams alleged to be involved in illegal activities
