“The president of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC), Gabriele Gravina, has rejected Juventus’ request for a sporting pardon for Kalulu, following his expulsion during the match against Inter and his one-match suspension. The rejection decision was recently communicated to the Bianconero club.indicated the ANSA agency.
