The Turin prosecutor’s office has filed an indictment petition against the former leadership of Juventus Football Club, according to Sky Sport Italy. The move centers on former club president Andrea Agnelli, ex-assistant Pavel Nedved, and former general manager Maurizio Arrivabene, who are all under investigation.
Earlier reports noted that the entire Juventus board had decided to resign. The extraordinary board meeting led to the stepping down of President Andrea Agnelli, Vice President Pavel Nedved, Chief Executive Maurizio Arrivabene, and seven other board members. The stated reason for this drastic move relates to the ongoing probe into alleged violations and concerns connected to the approval of the club’s budget.
Agnelli has led the club since 2010, a period during which Juventus secured nine Serie A titles, underscoring the team’s historical success in Turin. The current investigation adds a new chapter to a long and storied era for the club.
In competition news, the 15th week fixture of the Italian championship saw Juventus host Lazio at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, a match that ended with a 3-0 victory for the home side. The win reinforced Juventus’ position in the standings, though the broader implications of the leadership changes continue to unfold in the club’s strategic planning and on-field performance.
With 15 games played, Juventus sits in third place in Serie A with 31 points. Lazio trails closely in fourth with 30 points, while Napoli leads the table with 41 points. The season’s arc remains influenced by administrative developments off the pitch as the team navigates new leadership structures and governance decisions.
Looking ahead, Juventus is scheduled to play their next match on January 4, with Cremonese as the opposition. On the same day, Lazio will face Lecce, setting up a day of fixtures that will be watched closely by fans and analysts alike as the league continues to evolve amid the ongoing leadership narrative.
