Just googled Paratici corruption and fun to see the various hits from the past. He’s certainly had fun while at Juve…

Juve all or nothing is great. Paratici heavily featured. Oh to be a fly on the wall with what him and Conte make of this squad.

My guess it's about the Arthur-Pjanić transfer. It's obvious this was some shady business to balance the books. It was mentioned during that Molina stream.

Paratici may not have been an CFO, but as a sporting director he certainly knows at least basic accounting and uses that to his advantage. Hence all the loan with obligation deals we made this summer.

Everyone knew that those deals were about balancing the books, nobody even tried to make it secret or whatever. Didn't even think that was illegal.

I'm not saying there's corruption in (Italian)football but I did hear there was a brown envelope shortage in the 1990s.

That transfer was as much about cooking the books for Juve as it was for Barca. Shadiest transfer in quite some time. Not shocked Italy is investigating it. More shocked it isn’t joint with the Spanish.

Anyone know what the likely consequences of this could be for Fabio?
Could he be arrested or banned from working in football or just fined etc?

The whole transfer system is a joke anyway. Who is to say whether Pjanic was worth 60M Euros or 6M? Ask a nurse or a school teacher if Bale is worth 650k per week? It is basically supply and demand capitalism and clubs 'playing' the system is no different to any other business looking for loopholes.

true, unless there are transfer pricing adjustments required for other reasons - biggest being tax. I don’t know if transfer pricing is a thing for FFP though, you’d probably think so but then you get dodgy as fuck deals where it’s obvious deals are not being done at arm’s length like etihad airways and Man City…

After last week he and Hitchen must be so busy with both ins and outs.
Only one month before the window opens and I hope we've got something lined up.
Before the window opens, I hope for about three in and up to maybe five out.
Some loans~ some permanent not too fussed, BUT A STRIKER PLEASE.
