Juventus face expulsion from European competition

UEFA may exclude Juventus from European competition, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Previously, the club was deducted 15 points in Serie A for financial fraud. It was established that Juventus made secret payments that were not reflected in the club's accounts. In addition, these data may be taken into account by UEFA, which may affect the participation of the team in European tournaments.

Prior to this, UEFA fined Juventus 3.5 million euros for violating financial fair play. If the club fails to meet the required criteria again in the coming years, the fine will increase to 23 million euros. In addition, Juve is threatened with exclusion from European competitions, and not for one year.

This is not about the current season, in which the team flew out of the Champions League and will continue to fight in the Europa League, but about the next. If the “old lady” fails to break into the European Cups at the end of this season, the ban will take effect when the team takes a place in the European Cup area at the end of the season.
