  • The terms of a dealIn May 2024 Santopadre received "una proposta pari a quattro milioni di euro per rilevare il club" from an unnamed cordata (Quotidiano dell'Umbria via TuttoC). It is not established that it came from Javier Faroni, who bought the club in September 2024, so it is not recorded as a term of that sale.
