Juventus said Tuesday that
Uruguay defender Martin Caceres has been temporarily dropped
from the Serie A champions' squad after crashing his Ferrari
into a bus stop in Turin in the early hours of the morning while
driving over the alcohol limit.
"The behaviour of Martin Caceres on the night between 28
and 29 September represents a serious violation of his
contractual obligations to Juventus, as well as damaging the
image of the club," read a statement by the Turin giants.
"Juventus will therefore apply the disciplinary measures
of a fine and temporary exclusion from competitive first team
activities".
The accident occurred shortly after midnight after Caceres
invaded the opposite carriageway in Corso Giambone and crashed
into parked cars and then the bus stop shelter, which collapsed.
He suffered no injuries in the accident but had his
licence taken off him.
Last year the footballer crashed into the entrance of a
metro stop.
