yesterday wednesday News on Sky Sports announced that FIFA has decided to extend worldwide the sanctions imposed by the Italian Federation on Juventus for the fictitious capital gains scandal. A case that meant a two-year sentence for the club’s president, Andrea Agnelli; in addition to the eight-month disqualification for the former vice president Pavel Nevded and another two years of disqualification for the former CEO Maurizio Arrivane. To these is added Fabio Paraticicurrently in Tottenham, and that he was sentenced to 30 months. Sanctions that, as confirmed by this newspaper, FIFA will extend worldwide so that they cannot carry out any activity related to football and must fully comply with their punishment. Starting with yourself Maurizio.
This means that alarms go off about FC Barcelona and his situation regarding the ‘Negreira case’. But from this newspaper we can confirm that we are talking about completely different situations. The first, and most important, that in the case of Juventus There is already a final sentence from the Italian Federation itself against the Juventino club.
The scenario is not the same as the “Negreira case” and the boat. As we explained last week, there is one main reason why FIFA has not communicated its opinion or position on this. Negreira beyond the words of the FIFA president, Gianni Infantinoon March 16. To them, he expressed his concern about what was happening and that they would see everything that was happening and how it was being resolved.
The explanation is very simple and included in its Disciplinary Code. Specifically in its point 3 in relation to the general rules and in the first article of the same, number 30 of the regulations. In it, it is clarified that “confederations, federations and other sports organizations are responsible for investigating, prosecuting and sanctioning behaviors maintained in their respective jurisdictions.”
If so, it is the Spanish Football Federation’s responsibility now to take sides or act in this conflict. The RFEF is also obliged to notify FIFA itself of violations that are classified as serious, and within this will be the ‘Negreira Case’ as it is an attempt to manipulate matches. “Confederations and federations must immediately inform FIFA of sanctions handed down by their respective judicial bodies in relation to serious offenses (including, but not limited to, doping, manipulation of matches and competitions of football, and sexual abuse or harassment).
FIFA reserves the right to act. The intervention that can be done within 90 days after becoming aware of the violation “FIFA’s judicial bodies reserve the right to investigate, prosecute and punish serious violations, in particular cases of doping, match manipulation and racism, which is within the scope of its application. code and under the jurisdiction of confederations, federations or other sports bodies, if they consider it appropriate in a particular case and if a formal investigation has not been carried out in respective confederation, federation or sports body within 90 days from the moment FIFA becomes aware of the violation, or if the confederation, federation or sports body agrees with FIFA to give it the power to deal with the case.”
This explains why so far this has not been done and it cannot be compared to the situation in Italian football and the decision adopted by FIFA regarding the application of sanctions against Juventus.
