Juventus Prisma Investigation Concludes with Plea Bargains

The Prisma investigation into Juventus’ financial irregularities from 2019 to 2021 ended with plea bargains for Andrea Agnelli, Pavel Nedved, and Fabio Paratici. Agnelli received a suspended sentence of one year eight months, Nedved one year two months, and Paratici one year six months. Juventus were fined €156,000, formally closing the high-profile case.

As the long-running Prisma investigation into Juventus finally concluded, former club president Andrea Agnelli, vice president Pavel Nedved, and ex-sporting director Fabio Paratici saw their plea bargains formally accepted by the court. The inquiry, which focused on financial irregularities between 2019 and 2021, examined artificially inflated transfer fees and issues related to salary agreements during the pandemic.

These controversies had already prompted the resignations of the trio along with much of the Juventus board in late 2022. On 22 September 2025, preliminary judge Anna Maria Gavoni approved the plea deals, handing Agnelli a suspended sentence of one year and eight months, Nedved one year and two months, and Paratici one year and six months. Juventus as a club was fined €156,000.

Agnelli released a statement acknowledging the difficulty of his decision, stressing that while he still maintains his innocence, the plea was the most practical way to bring an end to proceedings that had dragged on for almost four years. He described the process as both personally taxing and instructive, while reaffirming his unwavering affection for Juventus, Italy, and his hometown of Turin. The ruling closes one of the most turbulent chapters in the club’s modern history.
