Juventus face another anxious wait in relation to their request to have the Calciopoli-revoked Scudetti restored based on the on-going trial at the Tribunal of Naples.

It's been 200 days since Juventus lodged an appeal with the FIGC to have them review the revoked Scudetti decision which was taken in 2006 following the original Calciopoli sports trial.

Juventus believe they have a right to have those titles restored based on evidence which has emerged in Naples.

But despite the FIGC's federal office opening an investigation, times of discovery will be long and anxious for Juve.

"Our objective is to look at Juve's appeal in technical times compatible with good sense, and the autonomy of the federal office," Giancarlo Abete told Tuttosport.

"I would like to remind people that the fedeal office open its activity once the wiretaps were legally accepted at the trial.

"In any case, we cannot invade territory which is not within our competence," he added, in relation to the ongoing trial of Naples.
