Football Italia reports that a number of directors would be affected as Paratici who moved to Tottenham risks a 2 and a half year suspension, a two-year ban for Agnelli and Maurizio Arrivabene and an eight-month ban for Nedved.

These suspensions would be extended to UEFA and FIFA, putting the Spurs director in a difficult spot.

15 points to be deducted in Serie A

Juventus have been dealt a blow after being deducted 15 points following an investigation into the club’s transfer activities.

The points deduction is set to push Juventus to mid-table, with 20 games of the season to go.

It is being reported that an investigation brought to light that the club fixed their balance sheets by artificial gains from club transfers.

Chelsea avoiding strict financial rules

Sports Brief earlier reported that multiple questions have been raised about Chelsea's willingness to spend huge wads of cash on transfer targets.

The Blues have often been blasted for paying excess money for otherwise moderate players. The club recently forked out close to 88-million euros to land Ukrainian sensation, Mykhailo Mudryk.

For Mudryk, Chelsea had to outbid Arsenal and offer better wages, with the Shakhtar Donetsk winger believed to have preferred a move to the red side of London.
