Antonio Conte, the Juventus manager, has launched a second appeal against a 10-month ban over a match-fixing scandal that may keep him out for the whole Serie A season.

Conte asked that the appeal be fast-tracked and the ban be temporarily suspended while it is being reviewed.

This is the final appeal Conte can make to a sporting tribunal. No details were given for how long a ruling would take.
