The sports judge has decided to suspend the Napoli coach, Massimiliano Allegri, for the next two matches, with a fine of 10,000 euros. The measure was taken following an episode of "falsification of documents" relating to the Champions League, in which Allegri allegedly claimed to have received a cash prize from Milan. The federal prosecutor Chinè, present at the Naples stadium, has opened a case that could lead to further sanctions pursuant to article 23 of the Sports Justice Code. Allegri has already announced that he intends to contest the decision in court.
On the Roma front, coach Gian Piero Gasperini responded calmly to the accusations made against Allegri, declaring that he had heard nothing and had not made any statement in favor of the "unfortunate confirmation" of the situation. In a press conference, Gasperini also presented the next match against Cagliari, highlighting that the team is ready for the midweek match.
Napoli, in addition to Allegri's suspension, has to deal with two new injuries. Midfielder Badiashile suffered a medium-grade hernia in his rectus femoris, which rules him out for the whole of 2027, while Spinazzola, with a milder problem, is expected to return to the pitch next week. Roma, however, announced the renewal of the contract of Emanuele Lulli, a winger who made his debut in the current season and scored his first goal against Genoa. Lulli was extended for five years, until 30 June 2031, consolidating his position within the Giallorossi team.
Allegri's case and Gasperini's response have been at the center of media attention, but Serie A continues to follow the news and injury issues. With the next matches scheduled, both Napoli and Roma will have to focus their energy on performances on the pitch, while Allegri's legal issue remains pending until the court's final decision.
