Dybala ready to sue Juventus for non-renewal. “And I’m waiting for 3 million salaries in arrears”- Corriere.it

Unloaded by Juve when the agreement, already in black and white, was just missing the signatures, Paulo Dybala could have his revenge, not just sporting, given Sunday’s crossing at the Olimpico: from the documents of the Turin prosecutor’s investigation into the accounts of the club, it appears in fact that one of the Argentine’s lawyers, the lawyer Luca Ferrari, filed a claim for compensation for the non-renewal of the contract, by e-mail dated May 12, letter dated July 28 and e-mail dated September 20, 2022. The former Juventus number 10, listened to by a captain and a marshal of the finance police, falls for the clouds: I was not aware of these documents which i never seen before. In any case, Dybala dispenses the same lawyer from the opposition of professional secrecy. Heard three days ago in the prosecutor’s office come on pm, the lawyer confirmed everything.

Basically, according to the lawyer’s reconstruction, there would be pre-contractual liability profiles since in autumn 2021 the contract between Juve and Dybala was practically done: after which suddenly – according to his version – the club backed down, to then take Vlahovic, the following January. It goes without saying, one operation was an alternative to another. The player, in fact, says he is unaware: I learned of this a few days ago, when you called me and I told my lawyer: he told me that there is this request for compensation. But I hadn’t asked for this, I had only asked to take back wages and nothing else. That is to say: I know very well that Juventus still owe me moneybut I don’t know the precise sum, but it will be more or less 3 million net.

Reason: Surely it’s about the 2021 salaries moved, maybe there’s even some bonuses in it. He explains again: When we made the agreement for the transfer of payroll, we knew that if I still had a contract, the back wages would be paid as an increase on the subsequent wages, if instead I left, they would have to pay me everything right away. I know that in April 2023 Juve have the last opportunity to pay these approximately 3 million. Otherwise: I know that otherwise my lawyer will make requests in writing even though I hope it won’t go that far. As a beloved ex, he would like to avoid a legal battle: I spoke to my lawyers and made them understand that obviously I want my money back, but without filing any lawsuit and without going out in the newspapers, avoiding problems for me and for Juventus.

The last deeds deposited also reveal the long deposition of Maurizio Lombardo, 48 years old, for nine general secretary of Juve (now in Rome): the man of the briefcase – I always had it with me – inside which there were the side letters , for the prosecution, the unfiled agreements. I knew they were documents that it was better not to get out. So much so that they told him not to keep them in the office. They were not deposited, because they could generate a commitment at the budget level. In certain cases, I specify: Because otherwise the capital gain could not be recorded.
