- During the 2022-23 Serie A season, Juventus received a 10-point deduction after being found guilty of breaking rules by the Italian FA appeals court.
- Although Juventus finished seventh in the league and qualified for the UEFA Conference League, they have also been banned from that competition for the upcoming season²⁵.
- Fiorentina will take Juventus’ spot and play in the same tournament where they faced West Ham in the final last season on June 7.
- Juventus chairman Gianluca Ferrero expressed regret for the UEFA Club Financial Control Body’s decision.
