Originally
Fiorientina were supposed to be relegated to Serie B – but didn’t after appeal
Juve were supposed to be relegated to Serie c plus a reduction of 30 points – but ended up in B with a reduction of 9 points
Fiorientina were supposed to be relegated to Serie B – but didn’t after appeal
Lazio were supposed to be relegated to Serie B with a 7 point reduction – but didn’t after appeal, and were only deducted 3 points
so I’m pretty sure this will be overturned / reduced as well
This is a FIFA decision, mate, the calciopoli punishments were administered by the Italian FA.
The best example I can think of is the transfer of Philippe Mexes to Roma. FIFA imposed a transfer embargo on the club a few seasons ago for a similar breach that was supposed to endure two consecutive windows, but on appeal I think it was reduced to just the one transfer window in January.
Anyway, they've 10 days to appeal to the CAS.

How does that work out? Surley their appeal has to be lodged within a few days of FIFAs ruling and it would take maybe a few weeks max for FIFA to come to a further decision. I doubt it will get dragged into the next window.
