After the Rome court's decision to file the case against Juventus, it will be interesting to see whether the club's lawyers believe there is a basis to start a compensation claim.
A possible compensation case would focus on the financial and sporting consequences that the club suffered during the lengthy process, where Juventus first and foremost missed out on qualifying for the UEFA Champions League in the 2023/24 season.
The specific financial losses to Juventus as a result of the sporting sanctions may be difficult to determine with precision, - but the club lost around €90m between lost TV money, prize pools and ticket sales and when adding decrease in sponsorship and a €10m fine, it’s something that could quickly amount to between €115m and €140m
If Juventus choose to file a claim for damages, the arrow will point directly at the FIGC. The argument will be that the federation's point penalties and sporting sanctions in Serie A were imposed on an incomplete and hasty basis, ultimately costing the club qualification for the UCL, but also hurting the club’s reputation and brand.
The relationship between Juventus, FIGC and UEFA has improved significantly after the club distanced itself from Andrea Agnelli, who also no longer has any direct connection to EXOR.
Juventus chose in June 2024 to withdraw the club from the Super League project in order to rebuild diplomatic bridges to both associations and even though Juventus may/may not be able to seek compensation, it is probably also worth considering whether it makes sense to start a new grueling and expensive process where enemies may once again arise, just to het “whatever” money you may be entitled too.
What will happen from here is unknown, - Juventus is probably evaluating its possible next move, but at the moment, I think it’s unlikely that Juventus will go any further with a compensation claim ⚫️⚪️
