Allegri to be suspended, then faces fine risk: FIGC prosecutor investigating

Allegri faces automatic one-match ban for red card; FIGC prosecutor investigating controversial comments about Roma for potential additional fine.

Massimiliano Allegri will serve an automatic suspension following his red card in Napoli's match on Saturday. The FIGC prosecutor's office is investigating comments the Napoli manager made in the dressing room area, including a remark about Roma: "They put the Champions League in their pocket, I paid with Milan, always them." The statement was heard by an inspector and witnesses and could result in an additional financial penalty beyond the suspension.

If the sports judge imposes a one-match ban as expected in Naples, Allegri would miss only the trip to Monza. A two-match suspension—considered unlikely—would keep him out of the Juventus match on Sunday. The FIGC prosecutor attended the match in person, indicating it was considered sensitive. Since the controversial comments were made outside the playing area, the investigation falls under federal jurisdiction and runs parallel to the sporting sanction. The prosecutor will wait for today's disciplinary ruling before deciding whether to add a separate fine.
