Today, Serie A sports judge Gerardo Mastrandrea is anticipated to deliver his ruling on the racism dispute involving Inter’s Francesco Acerbi and Napoli’s Juan Jesus.

During the final moments of the 1-1 match between Inter and Napoli on March 17th, Juan Jesus reported to referee Federico La Penna that Acerbi had racially insulted him. This incident led to Juan Jesus withdrawing from the Italian national team, and both players were subsequently questioned by the FIGC.

If found guilty of racially abusing Juan Jesus, Acerbi faces the possibility of receiving a 10-match suspension. Reports vary regarding Inter’s response, with some suggesting the potential departure of the defender by the season’s end.

Reports from TMW indicate that Serie A sports judge Mastrandrea is expected to render his decision on the racism case within hours, determining whether Acerbi is culpable and warrants punishment.

Acerbi, the Italian defender, has consistently denied the allegations, asserting that he threatened to physically harm Juan Jesus rather than using racist language.

Furthermore, there exists the possibility that Acerbi could receive a lesser sanction for unsportsmanlike behavior if the claims of racial abuse are not substantiated.
