Juve wants Inter stripped of 2006 title

Juventus will ask Italian football authorities to strip Inter Milan of the 2006 Serie A title, which was assigned amid a match-fixing scandal.

Inter was awarded the league title after Juventus was stripped of the honor and relegated to Serie B due to its role in the scandal.

But in a statement Monday, Juventus said new revelations have emerged that allegedly show that Inter benefited from contacts with refereeing officials.

Italian media have recently printed purported phone-tap conversations linking Inter and other clubs to the scandal. The new wiretaps have been exposed by former Juventus executive Luciano Moggi, who is on trial in Naples.

The statement said that "Juventus asks for equal treatment."
