Aurelio and Luigi De Laurentiis under investigation for false accounting and fraudulent bankruptcy at Bari
Aurelio De Laurentiis, president of Serie A champions Napoli, and his son Luigi De Laurentiis have been placed under investigation by Naples prosecutors for alleged false accounting and fraudulent bankruptcy. The investigation relates to the period when the De Laurentiis family owned Serie B club Bari, which they sold in 2018. The charges stem from financial irregularities during their tenure. The investigation is part of a broader probe that has also involved former Bari executives.
Read the full story at football-italia.netWhile this investigation relates to the De Laurentiis family's past ownership of Bari rather than current operations, it could have implications for Aurelio De Laurentiis' standing as Napoli president. Legal proceedings against club owners can affect future licensing, governance scrutiny, and reputation. The timing and outcome may influence how Italian football authorities (FIGC) view the ownership structure, though Napoli's on-field operations are unlikely to be directly impacted in the short term.
