Juventus €444M damages claim rejected

Juventus' legal action against the Calciopoli ruling has been rejected.

Their appeal for €444m in damages from the FIGC and CONI has been shunned by the TAR court.

Juve were seeking damages for the punishment handed down for their role in the 2006 Calciopoli scandal.

The Tribunale Amministrativo Regionale rejected their suit, believing the matter had already been decided after a previous appeal submitted in 2006 but later withdrawn, with the club preferring to go to the CONI arbitration chamber, where they lost the case in October of the same year.

The judges therefore ruled that TAR could had no jurisdiction over something which had already been adjudicated.
