The Mirror:

World Cup winners Gianluigi Buffon, Gianluca Zambrotta and Fabio Cannavaro could be given free transfers in the latest twist in Italy's match-fixing scandal.

The Juventus trio are awaiting the verdict from an inquiry into allegations the Turin club tried to influence the appointment of match officials.

If the clubs are found guilty later this week they would be in breach of contracts with players, entitling them to free transfers.
