Juventus punished with a 15-point deduction after an investigation into their transfers

After an investigation into their financial transactions, the national soccer federation (FIGC) docked Juventus 15 points. The announcement came on Friday after an Italian court’s investigation. 

Fabio Paratici, the club’s former owner, who’s presently at Tottenham Hotspur, has got a 30-month ban.

Juventus’ 15 points were deducted after an investigation into their financial dealings

As per the investigation, the club executive falsified financial accounts between 2018 and 2020. Juventus currently stands in third place on the Serie A scoreboard but with 37 points but with a 15 points deduction, it will drop to 11th place with 22 points. As it signifies, Juventus will stand with Bologna and Empoli in that case. 

Fabio Paratici has been banned for 2.5 years, and Andrea Agnelli has been disqualified for two years. The CEO, Maurizio Arrivabene, has also been imposed with a two-year suspension, while former vice chairman Pavel Nedved is suspended for eight months. 

As of now, Paratici’s suspension is only limited to FIGC-related activities. The ban isn’t eligible for England, but there’s a request to extend it to all UEFA and FIFA remits.

The club denies any unethical activities

Juventus object and wrongdoing and states that its accounting adheres to the industry standards, but they admit certain salary misinterpretations “may be subject to different interpretations.”

There’s room for appeal, but the current issue is with the Club Financial Control Body First Chamber’s reaction. Last year in August, they settled with Juventus over potential breaches of the Club Licensing and FFF rules. 

The club’s financial state was different as analyzed by CFCB First Chamber during that time of the settlement. 

The appeal process is available for all punishments, and this case isn’t an exception either.

BREAKING: Everton sack Frank Lampard after languishing in 19th place in the Premier League

0

The legendary Chelsea midfielder, Frank Lampard started his managerial career with Derby County and later took charge of Chelsea but was sacked in 2021 due to poor results. After almost a one-year break Frank Lampard has been in charge of Everton since January 2022. However, he has now been sacked once again.

Everton is currently languishing in 19th place in the Premier League table, 2 points adrift of safety. They have lost eight of their last nine games in all competitions and their last 2-0 loss to West Ham on Saturday in the Premier League leaves them with just 15 points from 20 Premier League matches this season. So, Everton has now decided to sack Frank Lampard with immediate effect, as confirmed by Daily Mail.

Everton sack Frank Lampard

Frank Lampard has now been sacked two consecutive times in his short managerial career. He managed to save Everton from getting relegated last season and also started this season brightly as they lost just two of their first eight matches but their fortunes turned around drastically and now they are on the verge of getting relegated.

The 44-year-old’s stay at Goodison Park will not be remembered fondly as he has won just 12 of his 44 games in charge of the club and lost 23 matches, which makes his win percentage a mere 27 percent.

Who will be the next Everton manager?

Former Tottenham Hotspur and PSG manager, Mauricio Pochettino can be one of the leading candidates. Along with him, former Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur manager, Nuno Espirito Santo can be a possible candidate for the job to replace Lampard. He is currently managing the Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad. Also, former Burnley manager Sean Dyche can make it into the possible list.

However, Everton legend Leighton Baines, Under 18 head coach and Paul Tait, Under 21 head coach, is expected to take charge of Goodison Park until the club appoints a new manager.

Samsung TV Plus could make its way to other Smart TVs

The application Samsung TV Plus, which offers a plethora of free channels, might ultimately be available on TVs made by manufacturers other than Samsung. According to media technology reporter Janko Roettgers, who reports in his Lowpass weekly that Samsung is in discussions to bring its streaming platform to TCL TVs, this is the case.

Samsung TV Plus, which debuted in 2015, is an ad-supported streaming platform that is free to use and preloaded on newer Samsung TVs.

Samsung might launch a free streaming service

Like with a regular TV subscription, the service allows users to browse a selection of channels. With the addition of popular series, Samsung TV Plus offers a very impressive lineup of content for a free app. Along with Samsung-produced channels, it also provides a selection of regional and national news channels. In addition to 220 networks in the US, TV Plus currently offers about 1,600 channels spread across 24 nations.

While the business has discussed the notion of granting other TV manufacturers a license to use specific channels. As a consequence, Samsung has revised its strategy and is now allowing independent creators to use the entire TV Plus app. Samsung has been extending the availability of TV Plus over time, making the service accessible on the web, Galaxy devices, and even on a few Family Hub refrigerator models.

Other TV makers, such as Vizio, LG, and TCL have their own free streaming services that they compete with, as do other services that aren’t tied to particular TVs, such as Paramount’s Pluto TV, Roku, Amazon Freevee, Fox’s Tubi, and NBC’s Peacock. Although it appears that the company also wishes to make its TV Plus program a free-floating software, it’s not clear whether other makers will want the application on their TVs or even if the show will be a success.

According to Samsung, viewership on TV Plus increased by 100% over the previous year, with 3 billion hours of streaming worldwide. In the meantime, a report from Deadline attests to the expansion of the FAST business as a whole, citing data the outlet acquired from S&P Market Intelligence that shows the US FAST market was predicted to generate approximately $4 billion in revenue last year and might reach over $9 billion by 2026.

Warner Bros. Discovery is one of the businesses closely monitoring the prospects that the FAST sector offers. Even YouTube has been experimenting with a free, ad-supported channel as a potential substitute for individuals who don’t want to pay the escalating expenses of streaming Hulu, Disney Plus, and Netflix but also don’t want cable.

Verona will receive €15 million plus €3 million in add-ons for the midfielder. A contract until 2028 has been agreed between him and his new club. And now, it is only a matter of time before the deal is fully completed.

Spotify also adopting the trend of layoffs!?

In an effort to reduce expenses, Spotify Technology, a major tech giant, is proposing layoffs. According to a Bloomberg article, the business may reveal the layoffs as soon as this week. The business made a go of 38 employees from its Gimlet Media and Parcast podcast studios in October, in addition to podcast editorial staff in September. It is now intending to let go of further employees, though the precise amount of job cutbacks is not yet known.

The music streaming juggernaut Spotify currently employs around 9,800 people, according to its third-quarter financial report.

Additionally, Spotify has spent over a billion US dollars on purchases and the rights to popular shows since 2019, but these investments have yet to yield any dividends, and the stock price has fallen 66% since the beginning of the year. In June, Spotify management predicted that the podcast industry would turn a profit within a period of 1 to 2 years.

In the tech sector, layoffs have occurred before, and Spotify may not even be the last. Even some of the largest and most lucrative companies in a sector are reducing their employment in order to save spending. Google stated late last week that it is firing 6% of its workforce, or 12,000 workers globally, across all departments. A drop in the number of staff at Amazon of 18,000 was also announced.

Further evidence in Dani Alves‘ sexual assault case has emerged in the form of security camera footage from the private bathroom of a nightclub. The former Pumas right-back has been accused of rape by a 23-year-old in Barcelona and he is currently serving time in prison since Friday. 

According to the complainant, Alves forced the girl to “sit on top of him, threw her to the floor, forced her to perform fellatio on him, which she actively resisted, slapped her, lifted her off the floor and penetrated her until he ejaculated,” according to quotes carried by Marca. 

Dani Alves could be handed formal punishment after security camera footage emerges 

The defender first said that he did not know the girl, and then said that he might have seen her but nothing hapoened. Later, he said that she threw herself onto him. He also said that he was in the club for a very short amount of time, and that nothing happened in there. 

The victim has denied any offers for compensation by the player, and her demands are that he must serve time in prison. 

Dani Alves’ former teammate, Xavi Hernandez, commented on the issue and later clarified his statement on the matter after receiving some criticism for his words: 

“It’s difficult to comment on a situation like this. I am surprised and shocked. I am in a state of shock. Justice will rule whatever it is, we can’t go in. I feel very bad for him. I’m shocked,” Xavi said in the first instance.

“I would like to clarify what I said yesterday about Alves. I was misunderstood and I wasn’t forceful and I think it’s important that I explain myself,” Xavi explained in his post-match press conference.

“It’s a very sensitive and important issue. We have to condemn all these acts, whoever does it. I apologize to the victim and to the victims of sexual violence.

“I am surprised that Dani could have done any of these things. I understand the criticism and I apologize.”
