Galliani ban reduced
The Italian Olympic Committee’s (CONI) Court of Arbitration has reduced the Calciopoli ban inflicted on Milan vice-President Adriano Galliani.
The Rossoneri official was handed a nine-month suspension earlier this year in the aftermath of the scandal, which would have ended on April 14, 2007.
Galliani has always pleaded his innocence and therefore lodged an appeal with the Court of Arbitration, the highest level in sporting justice, in an attempt to see the punishment reduced.
The former Lega Calcio chief’s ban was cut down on Monday and his suspension will now end on December 23.
The rest of the punishment was a £17,800 fine, which will be paid to the Italian Football Federation within 30 days and will be used for youth activities.
