A huge scandal at Juventus on the horizon! Nedved and co. may even be relegated to Serie B

Pavel Nedved must be very nervous these days. The vice-president of Juventus, along with other members of the club’s management, has been questioned by the Italian Football Federation and according to the Italian media, it smells like a huge scandal.

Juventus Turin is facing suspicion of falsifying its accounts. The biggest ambiguity is said to be in the strange swap with Barcelona, where the clubs exchanged Arthur and Miralem Pjanic while writing large sums in the income columns.

According to the Italian media, a major scandal is on the horizon that could once again damage Juventus’ name. Even the stripping of the 2020 title is said to be in play, and that’s the least of it. The Old Lady is threatened with relegation to Serie B, something it already experienced in 2006 in connection with a corruption scandal.

Back then, Pavel Nedved was a player in the black and white jersey. Although he had plenty of offers, he decided to stay and, together with other club icons, immediately kicked off a return to the elite. Thanks to this, he also became immortal among Juventus fans and now serves as the club’s vice-president.

But now the 2003 Ballon d’Or winner is in the shadows. In addition to him, club boss Andrea Agnelli and former sporting director Fabio Paratici are also under investigation.

“The accusations are very serious. It also casts a bad light on past Serie A seasons, not least because there was a huge dominance of Juventus in domestic competition in previous years.

If it is confirmed that Juventus has enjoyed a financial advantage over its competitors in the transfer business thanks to accounting fraud, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) and the Competition Authority must act,” Marco Donzelli, president of Codacons, told Italy’s TMW.
