Juventus president Andrea Agnelli called all of the club's staff together, including Massimiliano Allegri's first team squad, to give a speech regarding the capital gains case that is facing the club.

The Italian giants are reportedly currently under investigation by Turin Public Prosecutor's Office for falsifying accounts.

 

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Serie A club are suspected of having falsified their balance sheets during 2019, 2020 and 2021.

 

In addition, 16 of the club's chiefs  including president Andrea Agnelli and vice president Pavel Nedved  are under investigation as confirmed by the Turin prosecutor.

 

And Agnelli brought the whole club together at the training centre on Wednesday to clarify the situation and explain the club's position, according to Sky Sports Italia.

 

The Italian businessman preached unity in his speech which was 'all united, the club has always acted with correctness', highlighting the need for the whole club to stay together and not panic during these tough times.

 

Italy's financial police Guardia Di Finanza are reportedly in the process of searching for private documents and agreements between the club and its players during this three-year period.

 

According to the Italian outlet, investigators have already found a secret document signed by Ronaldo and the club, which emerged from wiretaps of some of Juventus' directors last December.

 

The report states that Juventus had promised to pay Ronaldo €19.9m during the Covid-19 pandemic even if he left the Serie A side, and prosecutors believe the agreement was not registered in the club's financial declaration.
