TURIN – Pep Guardiola has the blessing of Alessandro Del Piero. The former Juventus champion would see him well on the Juventus bench. Alessandro Del Piero's statements are reported by Sky Sport.
"Would Guardiola be good for Juventus ? Yes, certainly – Del Piero replied to Sky Sports UK -. And I think Guardiola is a perfect profile for anyone. For what he has done in the past, for what he is doing now.
For his mentality and the quality of the game, for the players he has been able to put together. He won in Germany, he won in Spain, he won in England. I would say that he lacks Italy and France. It would be really interesting to see it in Italy. We'll see. I think this will be a hot summer, even in football … ".
Manchester City has been sanctioned with the exclusion from the European cups for two years and a fine of 30 million euros for 'serious violations of the regulations on licenses and financial fair play, overestimating the revenues of its sponsorships in its accounts and related information at the break-even presented to UEFA between 2012 and 2016.
As Sky Sport points out, the trial chamber also found that the English club "did not cooperate in the investigation of the case by the Club Financial Control Body".
Manchester City's reply is reported by sport.sky.it: "In December 2018, the UEFA chief investigator publicly anticipated the result and the sanction he intended to impose on Manchester City – the club said in a note published on its social profiles – even before starting any type of investigation.
The Club made a formal complaint to the UEFA disciplinary body, a complaint that has been validated by a TAS ruling. Basically, it's a UEFA-initiated case, investigated by UEFA and judged by UEFA.
With the conclusion of this discriminatory process, the Club will try to obtain an impartial process as quickly as possible and, therefore, will initiate a proceeding before the Sports Arbitration Court as soon as possible ".
