Overview
- The Ministry of the Interior has ordered a ban on away travel for Torino and Juventus supporters for the first ten league matchdays, running until November 3, with prefects charged to implement the restrictions case by case.
- The measure closes guest sectors in stadiums and bars ticket sales to residents of the targeted regions, specifically blocking Piemonte residents from Torino away tickets and Piemonte and Lombardia residents from Juventus away tickets.
- The decision follows violent clashes before the Derby della Mole on May 24 that left a Juventus supporter, reported as Basoccu, with a severe head injury requiring emergency surgery and later discharge with a possible further operation.
- Practical enforcement may vary by province because prefectures will apply the order locally, and it is not yet clear whether the ban will extend to pre-season friendlies as investigations continue into the cause of the injury, including an unverified hypothesis about a tear‑gas canister.
- The restriction signals a tougher public‑order stance after repeated ultras violence this season and will reshape fan travel, club logistics, and stadium security planning at the start of the new campaign.
