Last year’s champions had been stripped of their title, demoted, fined and had points deducted for their part in a match fixing scandal which rocked the World Cup winning nation.
After appeals to overturn the imposed demotion failed, club chiefs threatened to take the case to the civil courts – an option strongly opposed by the Italian football federation – the FIGC, and world governing body FIFA.
Juve president Giovanni Cobolli Gigli told Gazzetta dello Sport: “We have always been willing to talk to the FIGC and to the Italian Olympic Committee despite some strong words between us about our demands for reduction of our sentence.
“We have always respected the sports justice system. Our lawyers are continuing to talk with all parties.”
