Channel 4 - Ex-Juve chief Giraudo to run QPR?
Former ‘Triade’ Juventus director Antonio Giraudo could join Flavio Briatore in his bid to buy out Queen's Park Rangers.
It has been widely reported that the managing director of Renault’s Formula 1 team and millionaire businessman Briatore is interested in taking over the Championship club.
There are now additional rumours in Italy that the man to help him run the West London side is ex-Juventus chief Giraudo.
A member of the notorious ‘Triade’ of directors along with Luciano Moggi and Roberto Bettega, the general manager left the Bianconeri in the wake of the Calciopoli scandal.
Of the three Bettega was the only one to still work for Juve until recently, when his contract as a consultant was not renewed.
It was claimed that this decision was made by Marco Tardelli, who wanted a clean break with the pre-Calciopoli administration.
Giraudo has kept his silence over the scandal that saw Juventus demoted to Serie B amid allegations of pressurising referees and authority figures.
He went to London to work in real estate and it is rumoured he could be tempted back into the football world by Briatore’s ambitious plans for QPR.
Current President Gianni Paladini is playing down the reports of an offer, but the club has debts of £21m, more than £7m of which is owed to club directors and HM Revenue & Customs. Channel 4
