The Disciplinary rejected the request for a plea agreement agreed by the federal prosecutor and Antonio Conte's lawyers. Three months and a 200 euro fine: this was the plea bargain requested by the FIGC federal prosecutor Stefano Palazzi after having heard Antonio Conte's lawyers, at the end of the first hearing of the new sporting proceeding relating to the second branch of the football betting investigation. The Disciplinary deemed this penalty "inappropriate": now federal attorney and the technician's attorneys will have to re-discuss.
The Juventus coach (at the helm of Siena at the time of the disputed facts) had been deferred for the omitted complaints relating to the alleged match-fixing of the Novara-Siena and AlbinoLeffe-Siena matches of the 2010-2011 season. “Conte – informed Palazzi – expressed the wish that these amounts could be used for charitable and solidarity purposes and the Public Prosecutor's Office has given its consent”.
Here are the other requests, involving Serie A teams: 5 penalty points, a 20.000 euro fine in addition to 20.000 for the Bari vein for Siena; a penalty point and a 30.000 euro fine for Torino; 4 months, in addition to the continuation of the sentence of the previous provision, for Filippo Carobbio; 2 months and a 60.000 euro fine for Angelo Alessio (Juventus assistant coach); 3 months, in addition to the continuation of the sentence of the previous provision, for Gervasoni (released); 3 months and 20 days and a 30.000 euro fine for Larrondo, declassified as a failure to report.
