Italian sporting authorities " >Juventus have had their 15-point penalty suspended pending a new trial, but the 30-month ban for Tottenham’s managing director of football, Fabio Paratici, has been upheld by the Italian sporting authorities. The lift of the points penalty places Juventus in third in Serie A for the chance to compete in next season’s Champions League. The penalty was initially imposed in January for false accounting, with several former members of the Juventus board also receiving bans from football activities, including former club president Andrea Agnelli and Federico Cherubini. The appeal hearing took place at Coni headquarters in Rome, in front of the sports guarantee panel, chaired by Gabriella Palmieri Sandulli. Tottenham will now have to look for another candidate to replace Antonio Conte, as the acting head coach, Cristian Stellini is in charge.
