Moggi resigning as general manager of Juventus

ROME, May 14: Juventus general manager Luciano Moggi today said he was resigning from his post so that he could defend himself from accusations at the heart of a scandal which has rocked Italian soccer.

''From tomorrow I will have resigned as general manager of Juventus, from this evening the world of football is no longer my world,'' an emotional Moggi told reporters after Juventus had secured the league title for the second year in a row.
