What do the Italian members think about the penalty given to Juventus? Was it the right decision? As you are from that country, I'm curious about your opinions, since you have more control over the events.
From the outside, Juve's situation looks very bad. Every year they get a different punishment. They had deleted points in Serie A last season. They are now banned from the Conference League. Do you think they will receive a separate penalty in the Italian League again?
It's very sad that the name of such a well-established club is only mentioned with scandals. I can't even imagine the disappointment of the fans.
This ban is not from the Italian Football Federation but from UEFA. Investigations were carried out and it was discovered they Juventus violated Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules by UEFA between 2012 and 2019. And the investigating body has evidence to prove that it is true. The club is suffering from the illegal or criminal business activities of past top management officials. It is sad to see a team that has surmounted so many challenges to qualify for the Europa Conference League only to lose the slot because of the club's past errors.
Juventus is now a team that is unpredictable because more shady deals can be discovered in the future and sanctions will still follow. Maybe coach Massimiliano Allegri should start considering accepting the offer from Saudi Arabia because the future of Juventus is no more guaranteed. And it is disappointing for a coach that has given his all, only to lose what he has fought for because of the misdeed of past management. Lukaku that decided to abandon Inter for Juventus should also be aware that he will not be playing in any European competition this season.
