A point of the investigation by the Turin Public Prosecutor’s Office dedicated precisely to the operations of team B: the manager was heard for four hours
Launched on 3 August 2018 to manufacture – the champions of tomorrow – the under 23 of Juve it mostly ended up exporting
, increasing revenues. Legitimate and envied project, in the wake of the B teams of the foreign championships, provided that its logic is not distorted, as the investigation of the Turin Public Prosecutor’s Office suspects on the capital gains. Who dedicates a point of the survey to this aspect: Numerous sales transactions involving young players (belonging to the under 23) with significant and out-of-range considerations, compared to players of the same level and category. He talked about this on Thursday Giovanni Manna, in charge of the under 23 in fact, heard for almost four hours by the deputy prosecutor Marco Gianoglio and by the prosecutor Mario Bendoni, who together with his colleague Ciro Santoriello coordinate the investigations of the financial police.
To say, in the 2019/20 season, the under 23 traded for a higher value, by posting, than the sum of the other 59 Serie C clubs. Trading, many times even abroad, some of those players who ended up in the deeds of the investigation and in the investigations of Covisoc. Like Matthew Pereira da Silva, packaged for Barcelona (in an exchange) for 8 million euros, with a capital gain of 6.82 million. OR Pablo Moreno Taboada, ended up in Manchester City for 10 million, with a positive economic effect (on the accounts) of 7.6 million, net of the solidarity contribution and ancillary charges. Same path for Franco Daryl Tongya Heubang, who went to Olympique Marseille for 8 million, practically all of them in capital gains. Again, as part of an exchange.
The hearing of Manna, heard as a person informed on the facts (secret report), has in fact ended the first round of talks, given that now the prosecutors and the military of the economic and financial police unit of the Finance will concentrate on examining the seized documents and on forensic copies of the contents of PCs and hard drives. In short, a boundless material. In which investigators still hope to trace Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous card, the one that should not theoretically exist. The last move will be to hear as a witness Jorge Mendes, friend and historical prosecutor of CR7: the player’s agent could be contacted and invited to the Prosecutor’s office after the Christmas holidays. And if two suspects – former finance managers, Marco Re and Stefano Bertola – preferred not to answer the prosecutors, the other four – Agnelli, Nedved, Paratici and Cerrato – were not even called: they would have made the same choice.
