Chairman Paladini Denies Franco Ceravolo on QPR Staff - A News Report re Ceravolo

Dail Mail/Daniel King - Moggi's co-accused in match-fixing case is working as a scout for QPR
Franco Ceravolo, who is working as a scout for the new regime at Queens Park Rangers, is among those facing charges of criminal conspiracy in the Italian match-fixing scandal.
Ceravolo, linked strongly with the job of sporting director at Loftus Road, was previously chief scout at Juventus, where he was regarded as the right-hand man of Luciano Moggi, the Juve general manager.
Earlier this year, Ceravolo and Moggi were charged with criminal conspiracy in connection with the operation of the now defunct player management agency GEA World, which was run by Moggi's son, Alessandro, and Davide Lippi, son of World Cupwinning coach Marcello.
The next hearing in the case, which opened in Rome in June, is due before the end of the year. Ceravolo has denied any involvement.
QPR chairman Gianni Paladini denied that Ceravolo is on the club's staff. "He is not under contract with the club. He's just helping us out until his problems are solved," he said. Mail
And Guidolin
Daily Mail - October 13, 2007 The Rumour Mill: QPR eye del Piero as Guidolin gets a £20m war chest
New QPR boss Francesco Guidolin has made Italian hit-man Alessandro del Piero his first target after being told he has more than £20million to spend on players in order to revive fortunes at Loftus Road.
The former Palermo manager is just waiting for red tape to be cleared before heading to Shepherd's Bush from the Mediterranean.
But he will take charge of the Hoops knowing he was not first choice for the job as new owners - Formula One bigwigs Flavio Briatore and Bernie Ecclestone - had initially sounded out Hibs manager John Collins.
The former Celtic midfielder admitted he had been contacted about the job when he revealed: "There was something but it was just a phone call.
"But that's done, it's in the past and it won't be happening. I have a job to do here and I intend to see it through. My contract covers the rest of this season and the following year. I never broke a contract during my playing career, and I've no intention of doing so now."
Del Piero, who made his name leading the Juventus attack, would need persuading to join the second tier of English football but may be convinced to move to London by the new regime's ambitious plans..
