Tottenham managing director of football Fabio Paratici has been banned from football worldwide after FIFA extended the punishment imposed in Italy following his involvement in Juventus' penalised accounting practices.
In January, the Italian giants suffered a shock 15-point deduction after the club was deemed to have inflated player transfer values in swap deals among other financial offences.
Paratici joined the Juventus hierarchy in 2010 and was the club's sporting director between November 2018 and the summer of 2021, before he took up a similar role at Tottenham. The investigation into Juve's accounts scrutinised transactions between 2019 and 2021 - when Paratici was at the heart of the club's dealings.
