The financial police in Italy are looking for a document that proves the embezzlements of Juventus and Cristiano Ronaldo.

According to Italian media, that document contains hidden details about the transfer of the Portuguese to Manchester United which occurred in the summer transitional period.

The reason why this document is so important is because of the doubts that Juventus "ironed out" the financial books through the transfer of Ronaldo to report an operating loss of € 209 million instead of € 240 million.

The prosecution found out about the document by eavesdropping on the conversations of the people from Juventus with their associates.

"Corriere di Torino claims that a telephone conversation was intercepted between Juventus sporting director Federico Kerubini and club lawyer Cesare Gabazia. During the mentioned conversation, it can be heard that the lawyer claims that he talked to the president of Juventus about performing a fake transaction that "would not cross the border" and that move would not help much in ironing the books. The conversation was about Ronaldo's transfer to Manchester United.

During the transfer of Ronaldo to United for 15 million euros and eight million in bonuses, Juventus "presented data that are different from reality".

The newspaper "Gazeta delo Sport" announced a few days ago that Attorney General will summon Cristiano Ronaldo for questioning about the events at Juventus, which aroused in some of the public the suspicions that the Portuguese is in some way connected with the financial embezzlements in the "old lady".
