If Bonucci would opt to take the civil court path, wouldnt it take less than 14 months?
Considering that they want to hang him a penalty, of minimum a year, new options open for him.
Only by threating to go into real courts, could be usefull in a bargain about his penalty.
In the mean time, untill any verdict is handled Juve should support him.
And even if he is found guilty and loses a season, why should we terminate his contract?
He is our property, we are a company, he made a mistake in the past, not as long as he was our player, he will be punished for that, why punishing him extra and lose our investment? Freeze his contract for the duration of the possible ban, should be the worst we should do, IMO.
It would be enough as a message, if presentated properly and we will lose practically nothing, as we have recently extended his contract.
