Early life and family

A member of the Agnelli family and named after the 12th-century Italian poet Lapo Gianni,[10] Elkann was born in New York City,[11] the son of Countess Margherita Agnelli de Pahlen and the American-born Italian writer Alain Elkann.[12][13] His father is Jewish and his mother is Catholic.[14][15][16] He is the brother of John Elkann,[17] the chairman of Fiat and the chairman and CEO of Exor, an investment company controlled by the Agnelli family, which also owns Juventus F.C.[18][19] Elkann is a grandson of Fiat chairman Gianni Agnelli and Marella Agnelli.[20][21] He is nephew of Don Carlo Caracciolo, member of the House of Caracciolo, founder of Gruppo Editoriale L'Espresso and owner of the newspaper la Repubblica, the Italian daily general-interest newspaper.[22] Elkann is also a stepson of a Russian nobleman, Count Sergei de Pahlen.[23] Elkann has a filmmaker sister, Ginevra Elkann,[4] and five half-siblings by his mother's second marriage. They are named: Maria, Pierre, Sophia, Anna, and Tatiana.[23] He is a great-grandnephew of Ettore Ovazza, of the Ovazza banking family, via his grandmother, Carla Ovazza.[24][25]

In a discussion about his childhood with Silvia Toffanin, Elkann said: "I didn't love it very much. I was a dyslexic, hyperactive child, suffering from attention deficit, and since I was always behind at school, I wanted to prove that I was strong."[26] He graduated from the lycée et collège Victor-Duruy in Paris and from the European Business School London in international relations. He performed military service in the Alpini corps as a soldier in the Alpine Brigade "Taurinense".[26] According to those who know him and his two-year older brother well, they spoke of many similarities, such as the attachment to the family and particularly the grandfather, but also of many differences. In 2004, the elder Elkann was described as serious and rigorous, in contrast to the expansive and creative younger Elkann, who was in charge of operational marketing at Fiat, where he went to work at the Mirafiori plant every morning driving a Fiat Panda rather than a Lancia Ypsilon, the model he personally helped to launch.[27] From their father, the two Elkanns share the Jewish faith, which represented the first time that young heirs brought with them values and ethics that were different from those of the Catholic Agnelli family.[27]

Career

As is tradition in the education of the offspring of the Agnelli family, Elkann began his career in 1994 as a metal worker on the assembly line of Piaggio in Pontedera under the pseudonym of Lapo Rossi.[28] During this period, he also participated in a strike action to demand an improvement of the uncomfortable working conditions in the assembly line.[29][30] In 2001, Elkann worked as a personal assistant to Henry Kissinger,[31][32] who had just been appointed chairman of the 9/11 Commission and was an old friend of his grandfather, Gianni Agnelli.[29] He subsequently continued his work experience, which he started with different roles in Salomon Smith Barney and Danone, and worked as marketing associate for Ferrari and Maserati, where he spent four and a half years at the marketing office. Following Agnelli's worsening health conditions, Elkann decided to return to Italy in 2002 to be close to him.[26] In 2003, he became Fiat's director of marketing.[33]

Upon joining Fiat, Elkann asked to be able to take care of corporate promotion and communication, believing that the Fiat brand was suffering in this field, especially in the youth sector.[27] He promoted the group's image by launching different types of gadgets, including sweatshirts worn by himself,[26] with the vintage logo of the car manufacturer,[27] and the launch of the Fiat Grande Punto.[34][35][36] In 2004, with the appointment of his brother John Elkann as the group's vice-chairman, he became responsible for promotion for the three brands: Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Lancia.[26] In this period, he oversaw the worldwide launch of the new Fiat 500.[26] Elkann resigned from his position in 2005. This came after he was being widely reported as having a serious cocainism and heroin addiction.[37][38]

After a period of convalescence, Elkann returned to Italy in January 2007.[26] Along with Andrea Tessitore and Giovanni Accongiagioco, he founded Italia Independent, a company specializing in the production and sale of luxury eyewear, accessories, and clothing under the initials I–I, characterized by the possibility offered to the buyer to customize the product to be purchased. The first product, presented at Pitti Men in January 2007, was an eyewear model made entirely of carbon fibre. The company then developed a line of clothing, accessories, and with several collaborations in home and automotive decorations. In addition to eyewear, also launched were jewellery, a watch, a bicycle, and skateboard for urban transport. The company was listed on the Milan Stock Exchange, on the AIM segment, on 28 June 2013.[39][40]

On 4 July 2007, Elkann founded the Independent Ideas creative agency together with Alberto Fusignani and Ivanmaria Vele, whose activity was documented for three months in the Idee in progress program of the satellite television channel Fox Life.[41] From 30 October 2007 to June 2008, he was honorary president of the Italian Volleyball League club Sparkling Volley Milano; he is an international ambassador for the Milan Triennale, an ambassador for Tel HaShomer Hospital in Tel Aviv,[42] and a board member of various companies, such as the auction house Phillips.[33]

Elkann and the Independent Ideas agency participated together with the Centro Stile Fiat and Frida Giannini in the "500 by Gucci" project, launched in Milan on 23 February 2011,[43][44][45] and at the Geneva Motor Show on 1 March 2011.[46] In October 2011, he received the America Award from the Italy–USA Foundation.[47] In December 2011, Elkann launched the Ferrari Tailor Made project together with Luca Cordero di Montezemolo to build a tailor-made Ferrari,[38] personalized on the specific requests of the customer.[48] He also started a partnership project with ToyWatch, at the time owned by Gianluca Vacchi, producing a special edition of 1,007 ToyWatch watches combined with Italia Independent sunglasses from the I-Wear series.[49] A Second Unique Edition followed the next year.[50] In July 2013, he was honoured with the Automotive Hall of Fame's Young Leader & Excellence Award,[26] the first member of the Agnelli family to receive it after his great-great-grandfather, Giovanni Agnelli.[51][52]

In January 2017, Elkann joined the board of directors of Ferrari N.V., the holding company that controls the homonymous car manufacturer.[26] In December 2017, he inaugurated in Milan, in Piazzale Accursio, in an old Agip service station built by Mario Bacciocchi in the 1950s and renovated by Michele De Lucchi, Garage Italia Food & Restaurant, a joint venture with chef Carlo Cracco, to combine food-engines events,[53] that was announced in 2015.[54] In April 2019, the restaurant closed and the company passed entirely under the control of Laps to Go, Elkann's holding company.[55] In February 2019, the venture capital fund Talent EuVeca, chaired by Giovanna Dossena, entered Italia Independent with a capital increase, which in the meantime became Italia Independent Group after it closed the 2018 financial statements with income in the red,[56][57][58] and had to sell various assets.[59][60] Dossena came to hold 25.44% while Elkann remained the largest shareholder at 53.92%.[61]

Italia Independent Group closed 2021 with a turnover of €11.54 million, an increase of 1.7% compared to the €11.35 million obtained in the previous year. The final result was negative for €24.1 million, compared to the loss of €2.81 million recorded in 2020, as a result of write-downs and provisions for €18.12 million. At the end of December 2021, net debt had risen to €19.28 million, compared to €15.55 million at the beginning of the year. In a press release, the company said: "Despite the commitment made by management and the support of shareholders, Italia Independent has not managed to achieve the results envisaged in the business plans also due to external circumstances which have further aggravated the situation: the Covid emergency and the consequent lockdowns in various geographies, the instability of the markets, and the adverse macroeconomic context which has caused an increase and difficulty in procuring raw materials and the consequent growth in inflation."[62] The statement added that "the company is open to evaluating reasonable measures such as to favour the redeployment of employees."[63]

Interests

Art collection

Elkann is an art lover with a collection of contemporary art that includes original paintings by Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst, Roy Lichtenstein,[64][65] and rising contemporary artists, such as Teddy McDonald and Ian Berry,[66] who made his portrait out of denim.[67]

Car marketing and customization

Elkann coordinated marketing for the Fiat Punto,[68] Fiat Grande Punto,[69][70] and Fiat 500.[71][72] For Garage Italia Customs, an atelier that he founded in 2015,[73][74] and that customizes cars,[75][76][77] he was behind the Vintage Icon-e, the Fiat 500's electric car,[78] and the Fiat Panda's electric versions,[79] and also created a grass-like green Fiat 500,[80] a golden Fiat 500 for Paco Rabanne,[81] a special, limited edition in 1958 units of the Fiat 500 Spiaggina '58,[82][83] and KarMasutra's Fiat 500 special edition.[84]

In 2011, Elkann worked with Gucci's creative director, Frida Giannini, on developing the Gucci Special Edition of the Fiat 500, and consulted with Ferrari, running Ferrari Tailor Made, which enables customers to customize their car.[38] This was followed by the Abarth 500 Pied de Poule,[85] which was acquired in 2020 for €37.700 euros from a Swiss investment vehicle launched by the Jalopy LTD fund.[86] In 2015, he designed the Fiat 500X Black Tie.[87] This was followed in 2016 by a special BMW i8 Futurism Edition,[88][89][90] which was presented to BMW's design director Adrian van Hooydonk.[91][92]

Fashion

In 2007, Elkann created Italia Independent,[93] a lifestyle and clothing brand featuring Italian products.[37][38] That same year, he founded Independent Ideas, a communication and advertising agency.[94] In 2011, Italia Independent and ToyWatch of Gianluca Vacchi presented a special edition of 1,007 copies of watches called Unique Edition.[95][96] In June 2013, Elkann listed Italia Independent on the Milan Stock Exchange.[97] In 2017, he and his brother had to reinvest in Italia Independent after its share price plunged from €40 to €4.4 following disappointing sales and mismanagement.[98]

Elkann was elected by Vanity Fair four times in a row in its International Best Dressed List, most recently in 2008,[99] and he was added to its Best Dressed Hall of Fame in 2009;[100][101] in doing so, he joined his grandparents, Gianni and Marella Agnelli,[102] about whom in 2020 he said: "My grandfather Gianni gave and taught me a lot. He is one of the people I loved the most in my life together with my grandmother Marella."[26] In 2010, Elkann made GQ's list of the world's 25 Sexiest Men.[103] Newsweek described him as having "what the Italians call sprezzatura, the art of making elegance and intelligence so natural they seem accidental."[104]

Ferrari

Among the many cars owned by Elkann, several of them are Ferraris.[105] A known presence to Formula One Grands Prix, particularly the Italian Grand Prix in Monza,[106] Elkann is a supporter of Scuderia Ferrari,[106][107] of which his brother serves as chairman through Ferrari.[108][109] The team's last World Drivers' Championship win dates back to 2007 with Kimi Raikkonen.[110] Before that, Ferrari had a period of dominance in the early 2000s, winning five consecutive World Drivers' Championships with Michael Schumacher and six consecutive World Constructors' Championships under the Schumacher pairings with Eddie Irvine (1999) and Rubens Barrichello (2000–2004), the last of which was won in 2008, between 1999 and 2004. In an interview to Oggi, Elkann said: "[Gianni Agnelli] saved the Prancing Horse, preventing it from being sold to the Americans. Then he chose the right people: [former Ferrari chairman] Luca di Montezemolo and Jean Todt. He loved Ferrari cars and he loved all the beautiful things in life. It's not enough to be rich to appreciate beauty. Taste cannot be bought."[111] About Schumacher, who suffered a skiing accident in 2013, Elkann wished him a happy 54th bithday in 2023 with the message: "Happy birthday to you dear Michael Schumacher. You don't know how much we miss you and how many joys you have given us. We always await you with open arms. You are unique and inimitable."[112]

Juventus F.C.

Unlike other members of the Agnelli–Elkann family like his brother, John Elkann, and his cousin, Andrea Agnelli,[113][114] Elkann did not hold any role in the association football club Juventus.[115][nb 1] He remains a supporter of the club,[140][141] got the club's emblem tattooed on his right arm,[142][143] among his many tattoos,[144][145] and engages with tifosi on social media.[146][147] In February 2023, some observers and commentators, after the club's technocratic management was over, made the name of Elkann as a future Juventus chairman;[148] both Exor, the family holding company, and Elkann denied this.[149] That same month, he criticized Evelina Christillin, a member of the FIFA Council, for her negative comments about the budget situation of the club.[150][151][nb 2]

Yachting

Elkann shares his grandfather's love for yachting, which served as inspiration for his home in Milan. The house was subject of a photoshoot by Architectural Digest. About his inspiration from the nautical world, he said: "I don't like houses, so I decided that this place would be redesigned to look like a ship and evoke the ocean."[105]

Politics

Elkann said he is not interested in politics and that it is not his job. In October 2019, he was involved in a diatribe with Matteo Salvini,[153][154] who had mocked him by referring his past drug abuse.[155][156] Elkann criticized Salvini's anti-immigrant policies and rhetoric. He said: "I am in favour of NGOs that help people at sea. I also find it quite shameful that none of the institutions were present in Lampedusa due to the tragedy of migrants that has taken place – as an Italian it makes me sad. ... I don't like the word migrants, it seems to me disparaging and not respectful. I like the word new Italians. I don't like Salvini, I don't like his behavior on the issue of migrants because I consider it dissolutive and not constructive."[157] About the role of Europe, he said: "Italy is the country that has the largest number of people arriving from various areas of the world where there are wars, suffering, and pain. We are the first to receive them, and Sicily is the area that receives the most. Europe must help and support Italy more."[158]

Personal life

Elkann is 1.72 m (5 ft 8 in) tall.[159] A Jew on his father's side,[27] he converted to Judaism in 2009.[160][161] About his faith, Elkann told Verissimo: "I believe in God, and I pray a lot. I also feel close to the Jewish world, because first of all they saved me. And then I adore Israel."[26] Passionate about new technologies and languages, over the years he learned to speak Italian, French, English, Portuguese, and Spanish.[162] He said his best friend is his brother, John Elkann.[163][164]

Elkann had many flirtings that were widely reported by gossip magazines. He had relationships with actress Martina Stella, socialite Bianca Brandolini d'Adda, businesswoman Goga Ashkenazi, actress Zhu Zhu,[26] and gallerist Carlotta Loverini Botta.[165] By 2020, he was single, wished to become a father, and said that if he had a daughter, he would like to call her Italia.[166] On 7 October 2021, Elkann married the Portuguese former rally raid racer Joana Lemos,[167] and they moved to Lisbon.[168] He met Lemos during a 2020 dinner in Portugal. Through the previous marriage of Lemos to Manuel Reymão Nogueira, which ended in 2014 after 18 years, Elkann is the father of two children: Tomás and Martim.[26]

On 11 October 2005, Elkann was hospitalized in serious conditions in the intensive care unit of the Mauriziano Hospital in Turin due to an overdose of a mix of opiates and cocaine after a night in the company of several people including a transgender woman who was the first to call an ambulance.[169][170] Subsequently, he resigned from his positions in Fiat and moved to Arizona, where he began rehabilitation therapy, to continue with a period of convalescence in a family residence in Miami.[26] About his past addictions, Elkann told Verissimo: "When you are alone, at a certain point you don't know how to deal with fragility. Substances destroy your life, and I have had problems. For me, the substance use was a way to anesthetize a pain I felt in me. Unfortunately I paid the consequences several times. I've done enough harm to myself, from now on I want more."[26]

In December 2019, Elkann was involved in a car accident in Tel Aviv,[171][172][173] where he was hospitalized;[174][175][176] he was there as part of a car trip.[177] After recovering from a ten-day coma,[178][179] he moved to a clinic in Switzerland,[180] and was seen on a wheelchair for a while;[181] the accident led him to a change of lifestyle. In addition to working with the Laps Foundation, a non-profit organization created in 2016 in support of children with dyslexia, learning disabilities, abuses, addictions, and discriminations,[182][183] he was involved in supporting the Italian Red Cross in the donations of shopping vouchers intended for the most needy families during the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy. He said: "I've decided to change my life, to help others, support others and do everything I can."[184] The campaign, which raised over €400,000, won the 2021 UEFA Foundation for Children award.[26] Through Laps, he leased a Boeing to take 150 Ukrainian refugees to safety, along with ten dogs and five cats, in April 2022.[185][186]

In October 2013, Elkann gave an interview to Beatrice Borromeo, of Il Fatto Quotidiano,[187][188] in which he said that he had suffered sexual abuse at the age of 13 when he had been sent to study in a Jesuit college;[189] the Jesuits denied that he was one of their students.[190] In an October 2020 interview to the Corriere della Sera, Elkann described his mother, Margherita Agnelli de Pahlen,[191] as an autholesionist and accused her of destroying the family,[192][193][194] having it split in two.[195][196] Into the 2020s, the de Pahlens remain involved in a dispute with the Elkanns over Gianni Agnelli's inheritance.[197][198] The lawsuit proceedings started in November 2022.[199]

In October 2005, Elkann was found unconscious and naked in the apartment of Donato Broco, who was described as a 53-year-old transsexual prostitute known as Patrizia.[200] He was brought to the hospital, where he was in a coma for three days. Police investigated him at the time for cocaine use and soliciting prostitution.[200] The Italian photographer Fabrizio Corona attempted to blackmail the Agnelli family for compromising information against Elkann. Marco Durante, head of LaPresse, an international photographic agency, was hired by the Agnelli family to negotiate with Corona and manage the situation.[201][202]

In early December 2014, as reported by Il Giorno, Elkann was secretly filmed during a party with two brothers who allegedly blackmailed him in exchange for silence. The two blackmailers were arrested and Elkann's lawyer contested the derogatory statements against his client.[203]

On 27 November 2016, as reported by the New York Daily News, The Daily Beast, and The Hollywood Reporter,[204] Elkann was arrested in New York City, after a drug and sex party in Manhattan, for making a false police report claiming that he had been unlawfully imprisoned.[205] After having run out of money available to him, he contacted his family; according to what a United States official told the Associated Press, Elkann stated that he would be harmed if they did not pay a $10,000 ransom.[206] He was accompanied by a transsexual escort who was also arrested,[207][208][209] and Elkann later confessed that he made up the story.[210] Charges against Elkann and the escort were later dropped.[211]

On 12 September 2020, Elkann was stopped twice by the police. The first case was due to speeding in a Ferrari, while the second time he was found in possession of three to four grams of cocaine.[212][213]

Notes

  1. Juventus is the most renowned Italian football club.[116] Into the 21st century, the club had won all six major UEFA competitions, reached four UEFA Champions League finals from 1995 to 2003 and consecutively from 1995 to 1998, was voted the seventh best of the FIFA Club of the Century in 2000, and in 2009 was named the second best club of the 20th century; by the early 2000s, the club had the third best revenue in Europe at over €200 million. This all changed in 2006, when Calciopoli controversially hit the club,[117][118][119] which was demoted to Serie B for the first time in its history despite the club being acquitted and the leagues were ruled to be regular in the Calciopoli trials.[120][121] In the words of Fulvio Bianchi, early 2000s Juventus were "stronger than all those that came after, and had €250 million in revenue, being at the top of Europe, and 100 sponsors. It took ten years to recover and return to the top Italians, not yet Europeans: now the club makes over €300 million, but in the meantime Real, Bayern, and the others have taken off."[122]

    Several observers, including former FIGC president Franco Carraro,[123] said things would have gone much different had the two Agnelli brothers been alive. The argument is that Calciopoli and its aftermath were also a dispute within Juventus and between the club's owners that came after the deaths of Elkann's grandfather, Gianni Agnelli, and his great-uncle, Umberto Agnelli,[124] including Franzo Grande Stevens and Gianluigi Gabetti who favoured Elkann's younger brother, John Elkann, over his cousin Andrea Agnelli as chairman,[125] and wanted to get rid of Luciano Moggi, Antonio Giraudo,[126][127][128] and Roberto Bettega, whose shares in the club increased;[129] Elkann was critical of the club's top three directors, saying in 2005 they remembered him of Cain and Abel, and said: "Just think that Moggi is the nicest of them all. It's enough for you to understand my opinion on the Juve management."[35] Whatever their intentions, it is argued they condemned Juventus: first when Carlo Zaccone, the club's lawyer,[130] agreed for relegation to Serie B and point-deduction, when he made that statement because Juventus were the only club risking more than one-division relegation (Serie C),[131] and he meant for Juventus (the sole club to be ultimately demoted) to have equal treatment with the other clubs;[132] and then when Luca Cordero di Montezemolo retired the club's appeal to the Regional Administrative Court of Lazio,[133] for which then-FIFA president Sepp Blatter was thankful, and that could have cleared the club's name and avoid relegation,[134][135] after FIFA and UEFA threatened to suspend the FIGC from international play.[136][137][138] Upon the club's return to Serie A in May 2007, after having received the Golden Tapir by Striscia la notizia, Elkann said: "I will face Serie A with greater serenity and greater happiness. It gives us more peace of mind knowing that victories and battles are won on the pitch."[139]
  2. About Juventus in 2023, which saw the resignation of the entire board of directors including chairman Andrea Agnelli after the reopening of a capital gains investigation that saw an unprecedented penalty-points for the club,[152] Elkann said: "A Shame. United and Firm we will win. Unfortunately, justice is not the same for EVERYONE but it should."[147] He added: "The sun will rise very soon for us, we must have faith to be united and firm. Forza Juve until the end. We have been through storms and many difficulties, we will come back stronger than ever. But above all, to all of you Tifosi, I tell you we need each of you more than never. Forza Juventus forever and until the end."[147] About the public prosecutor who was recorded on video saying he hated Juventus and that he was an anti-Juventus prosecutor, he said: "I am only with respect curious that this PM says things like this. This is not justice but defamation towards a team that has done so much."[147] About insults to his family, he replied: "They are shameful beings, Edoardo was GREAT and I carry him in my heart every day. He was sensitive, good, pure, and true with his fragility like all of us."[147] To those who would like to call him president, in what would be his first role in the club, he replied: "Thank you from the bottom of my heart."[147]

The Juventus defence, among other things, objects that a sum of several Articles 1 (unfair and dishonest sporting conduct) cannot lead to an indictment for Article 6 (sporting offence), using for example the metaphor that so many defamations do not carry a murder conviction: an unimpeachable objection. ... Hence the grotesque concept of 'standings altered without any match-fixing'. The 'Calciopoli' rulings state that there is no match-fixing. That the league under investigation, 2004–2005, is to be considered regular. But that the Juventus management has achieved effective standings advantages for Juventus FC even without altering the individual matches. In practice, Juventus was convicted of murder, with no one dead, no evidence, no accomplices, no murder weapon. Only for the presence of a hypothetical motive.

FIGC's actions in relegating Juventus and handing the title to Inter Milan were somewhat peculiar. Of course, Moggi and Juventus deserved punishment; that is not up for dispute. However, the severity of the ruling and the new location for the Scudetto was unprecedented and arguably should never have happened. The final ruling in the Calciopoli years later judged that Juventus had never breached article 6. As a result, the Serie A champions should never have encountered a shock 1–1 draw away to Rimini in the season's curtain-raiser. Nor should they have trounced Piacenza 4–0 in Turin or handed a 5–1 thrashing away to Arezzo in Tuscany. The findings stated that some club officials had violated article 6, but none had originated from Juventus. FIGC created a structured article violation with their decision-making. This means that instead of finding an article 6 breach, several article 1 violations were pieced together to create evidence damning to warrant relegation from Italy's top flight. Article 1 violations in Italian football usually command fines, bans, or points deductions, but certainly not relegation.

Archived from the original on 12 March 2012. Retrieved 6 March 2023. ... the motivations in 558 pages are summarized as follows. 1) Leagues not altered (therefore leagues unjustly taken away from Juve...), matches not fixed, referees not corrupted, investigations conducted incorrectly by the investigators of the Public Prosecutor's Office (interceptions of the Carabinieri which were even manipulated in the confrontation in the Chamber). 2) The SIM cards, the foreign telephone cards that Moggi has distributed to some referees and designators, would be proof of the attempt to alter and condition the system, even without the effective demonstration of the rigged result. 3) Moggi's attitude, like a real 'telephone' boss, is invasive even when he tries to influence the [Italian Football Federation] and the national team, see the phone calls with Carraro and Lippi. 4) That these phone calls and this 'mafia' or 'sub-mafia' promiscuity aimed at 'creating criminal associations' turned out to be common practice in the environment as is evident, does not acquit Moggi and C.: and therefore here is the sentence. ... Finally point 1), the so-called positive part of the motivations, that is, in fact everything is regular. And then the scandal of 'Scommettopoli' [the Italian football scandal of 2011] in which it's coming out that the 2010–2011 league [won by Milan] as a whole with tricks is to be considered really and decidedly irregular? The Chief Prosecutor of Cremona, Di Martino, says so for now, while sports justice takes its time as always, but I fear that many will soon repeat it, unless everything is silenced. With all due respect to those who want the truth and think that Moggi has objectively become the 'scapegoat'. Does the framework of information that does not investigate, analyse, compare, and take sides out of ignorance or bias seem slightly clearer to you?
  121. Rossini, Claudio (5 March 2014). "Calciopoli e la verità di comodo". Blasting News (in Italian). Retrieved 6 March 2023. Juventus have been acquitted, the offending leagues (2004/2005 and 2005/2006) have been declared regular, and the reasons for the conviction of Luciano Moggi are vague; mostly, they condemn his position, that he was in a position to commit a crime. In short, be careful to enter a shop without surveillance because even if you don't steal, you would have had the opportunity. And go on to explain to your friends that you're honest people after the morbid and pro-sales campaign of the newspapers. ... a club has been acquitted, and no one has heard of it, and whoever has heard of it, they don't accept it. The verdict of 2006, made in a hurry, was acceptable, that of Naples was not. The problem then lies not so much in vulgar journalism as in readers who accept the truths that are convenient. Juventus was, rightly or wrongly, the best justification for the failures of others, and it was in popular sentiment, as evidenced by the new controversies concerning 'The System.' But how? Wasn't the rotten erased? The referees since 2006 make mistakes in good faith, the word of Massimo Moratti (the only 'honest'). ... it isn't a question of tifo, but of a critical spirit, of the desire to deepen and not be satisfied with the headlines (as did Oliviero Beha, a well-known Viola [Fiorentina] fan, who, however, drew conclusions outside the chorus because, despite enjoying it as a tifoso, he suffered as a journalist. He wasn't satisfied and went into depth. He was one of the few).

[p. 48] Corrado De Biase, the head of the investigations office at the time of the [1980s] betting scandal from 1980, ... about Juventus and the work of Zaccone, its lawyer: 'I can't know why the Juventus owners has moved in a certain way, but I would say, 99%, that the affair was skilfully managed by the leaders of the Turin club, starting with the request from Zaccone, who left everyone stunned. Zaccone isn't incompetent, as many believe, but he was only an actor in this story.' ... The point that makes me think that Zaccone acted on input from the owners is another, namely the way in which the top management of Juventus moved, with that fake appeal to the TAR. How, I wonder, you dismiss the directors, practically pleading guilty, then you watch inert and impassive a media and judicial destruction against your club and then you're threatening to resort to the TAR? It's the concept of closing the barn when the oxen have fled, if you think about it. ... [p. 50] I, on my own, can only reiterate the concept already expressed: a penalty of 8/10 points, a fine, and a ban of Moggi and Giraudo for 10/12 months, this was the appropriate penalty in my opinion. Any parallel with the story of 1980 is unthinkable: here there're no traces of offence, nor of money or checks. The environmental offence isn't a crime covered by any code, unless we're talking about air pollution.'

Furthermore, there are some anomalies of the Agnellis which leave the door open to this type of hypothesis. The Calciopoli investigation was born out of a Turin investigation by the prosecutor Guariniello on the Juventus doping case, [in which] the interceptions of Moggi's conversations with the referees emerge. Guariniello sends the files to the boss Maddalena, notes that there are no crimes from a criminal point of view, but perhaps from a sporting point of view. Maddalena keeps the files for three months, then sends them to the [Italian] Football Federation. This period lasts a little over a year. Do you really [want to believe] that Juve didn't know what was going on? I have the impression that the Agnelli family took advantage of this opportunity to stop an attempt to take over the Moggi-Giraudo-Bettega company.

[p. 48] First you let yourself be massacred without lifting a finger, you have the title disassigned, you have the calendars drawn up for the European championships and cups, and then you threaten to go to the TAR, trumpeting everything in the newspapers? It looks much like a political move to appease the wrath of the fans, I think. If Zaccone, who is a man of value and experience, would have had the mandate to avoid the disaster he would have moved in a different way, in the sense that he would have pointed out these 'anomalies' in the time between the trial and the announcement of the verdicts. That, in fact, was the right moment to threaten to appeal to the TAR, when the sentences had not yet been written, but had to be done in camera caritatis, asking for a meeting with [p. 49] Ruperto, Sandulli, and Palazzi, and not in front of the journalists of La Gazzetta dello Sport. ... Please note that I'm not discussing the high strategy of the forensic art, but the basic principles, the ABC of the profession, the things that are taught to the boys who come to the studio to do a traineeship: if you, the defence attorney, think you have weapons to play, you ask for a meeting with the judge and the public prosecution, in the period between the trial and the verdict, and point out that, if the response is judged too severe, you will use them. And here there were weapons in industrial quantities. Then, in the face of a fait accompli, who takes the responsibility of stopping a machine that grinds billions of euros, so as to be the sixth industry in the country?'

It was enough to look at what happened in Portugal, where a top-flight team, relegated for ascertained collusion with (arrested) referees, was reinstated following the appeal made to the counterpart of the Italian TAR. For Juve it would have been even easier, because in the sporting trial no crime was ascertained and in the ordinary one the referees were all acquitted. The prosecutor had to resort to the 'anticipated crime' for something never committed or even thought of.
