AC Milan, Inter, and Roma are waiting with great anticipation to capitalise on any negative ruling against Juventus today
With Juventus expected to receive a 12-point deduction from the Federal Court of Appeals in their capital gains case today, Serie A clubs are licking their lips at the prospect of upstaging the Old Lady, with Milan, Inter, and Roma set to be the biggest beneficiaries.
Juventus set to lose 12 points in new Court of Appeal ruling
Juventus had initially had a 15-point penalty from the original ruling on the case reversed in April and moved from a lowly seventh place into third on the table, eventually rising to second after a string of good results, but could see that progress wiped away if the rumours surrounding the new ruling are true.
The Bianconeri are expected to lose a crucial 12 points in a new verdict today, which will see them tumble down the Serie A ladder once again, despite the original request from FIGC prosecutors only requesting a nine-point penalty in their original submission.
