Juventus
February 2026

Juventus executives Giorgio Chiellini and Damien Comolli have received suspensions following a heated halftime confrontation with referee Federico La Penna over Pierre Kalulu’s controversial dismissal. Comolli’s ban runs until March 31, 2026. The sporting judge’s ruling cites an aggressive and intimidating approach in the tunnel, attempts to make physical contact that required restraint, and gravely insulting language that continued outside the officials’ area. The sanctions were based on the official match report.
