The Calabria-based 'Ndrangheta
mafia controls Juventus fan groups and wages an "intimidating"
role in ticketing and ticket-touting, according to the sentence
of a recent trial into 'Ndrangheta infiltration of the political
and business worlds of upper Piedmont. On Monday an Italian
Soccer Federation (FIGC) court banned Juve President Andrea
Agnelli for one year for improper contacts with ultra fans
including a member of the Calabria-based 'Ndrangheta mafia over
ticketing, while acknowledging he was unaware of the man's
criminal background.
