Aurelio De Laurentiis, the owner of Napoli, has been charged with three years of false accounting, including agreements for Victor Osimhen and Kostas Manolas, and the office of the Rome public prosecutor has asked for his indictment.
Numerous Italian publications, such as Sky and La Gazzetta dello Sport, claim that the Partenopei supporter has been charged with falsifying capital gains in the club’s acquisitions of Osimhen from Lille in 2020 and Manloas from Roma in 2019.
nvestigators allege that those two deals generated fictitious capital gains worth a figure in the tens of millions by inflating the value of certain players beyond their actual worth on the transfer market.
Prosecutors Lorenzo Del Giudice and Giorgio Orano have also requested that Napoli, the club, and De Laurentiis’s right-hand man Andrea Chiavelli be put on trial.
Reports from Calciomercato.com and La Repubblica suggest that this might also affect Napoli from a sports perspective. The FIGC may also intervene and, if necessary, impose sanctions and penalties on the club after the prosecutors have obtained the required documentation.
