FIGC Prosecutor: Relegate Chievo

By Football Italia staff

The FIGC Prosecutor has requested a 15-point penalty for Chievo that would see them relegated for fictitious transfer figures.

The Veronese club is accused of inflating the transfer figures of a series of deals with Cesena – a club that went bankrupt this week – to make them look more valuable than they really were.

According to the evidence put forward by the Prosecutor, the value of the players traded were inflated by up to 9,000%.

The request from the Prosecutor is to dock them 15 points from the 2017-18 season, which would put Chievo in the relegation zone.

If confirmed, this would bring Crotone back up to Serie A and doom Chievo to Serie B.

The request is also for President Luca Campedelli to be banned for 36 months.
