Juventus' Official Withdrawal from Calciopoli

02 Nov 2023  |  www.gazzetta.it  |  Italian  |  Legal Issues

Juventus has officially withdrawn its appeal for damages related to the 2006 Serie A title awarded to Inter Milan. The decision, documented in the club's consolidated financial statement as of June 30, 2023, was influenced by the rejection of their appeal by the Consiglio di Stato against FIGC, Inter, and CONI. The withdrawal, confirmed on October 13, 2023, and unopposed by FIGC and Inter, effectively closes the Calciopoli case. The potential compensation, as noted in Juventus' semi-annual financial report, could have reached €443,725,200. The move is seen as more symbolic and political than substantive.

22 Jun 2023  |  The Sun  |  English  |  Sports

Tottenham Hotspur is close to signing Italian goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario from Empoli for £16.3 million, aiming to secure the transfer before Inter Milan can make a move. Vicario, who has had a notable career in Serie A, is expected to replace Hugo Lloris, who plans to leave this summer. Tottenham initially targeted Brentford's David Raya but found the asking price too high. New Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou values Vicario's ball-handling skills, which have been a focus of his recent development. The transfer is seen as a strategic move to strengthen Tottenham's goalkeeping options.

Samuel Eto'o's Overbearing Influence on Cameroon's National Football Team

02 Feb 2024  |  Nation  |  English  |  Management and Leadership in Sports

Samuel Eto'o, a celebrated former footballer and current president of the Cameroon Football Federation (Fecafoot), is facing criticism for his excessive involvement in the national team's affairs. Eto'o, who has a history of influencing team decisions, has been accused of overstepping his role by giving tactical instructions and undermining the coaching staff, including head coach Rigobert Song. This behavior was evident during the Africa Cup of Nations and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Critics, including journalist Jean Bruno Tagne and former Cameroon international Alexandre Song, argue that Eto'o's actions do not allow the team the freedom to operate independently. The situation escalated with the sidelining of goalkeeper Andre Onana after a disagreement with Eto'o, highlighting the tension within the team.
