Juventus Chairman Andrea Agnelli, along with the Italian first-division team’s entire board of directors, resigned late on Monday amid a probe into alleged false accounting and market manipulation related to the company’s last three years of financial filings.

"It is better to leave everyone together, giving the possibility to a new team to overturn that game."
