Former Juventus football club director Luciano Moggi has been committed for criminal trial over allegations of match-fixing by top Italian clubs.
A court in Rome sent 25 people for trial in January, including Mr Moggi, his counterparts at Fiorentina and Lazio, and four top referees.
Moggi was banned from football for five years at a 2006 sports trial.
Juventus was stripped of back-to-back league titles for 2005/6 and relegated to the second division over the affair.
The club is now back in the top flight.
Moggi could face prison if convicted after a judge at the preliminary hearing in Naples decided prosecutors had presented enough evidence to warrant a trial.
Lazio president Claudio Lotito, Fiorentina honorary president Diego Della Valle and Reggina president Pasquale Foti are also among the accused.
The match-fixing scandal stunned football fans across Europe.
It revolved around transcripts of phone taps which appeared to show key figures in Italian football putting pressure on referees to favour certain clubs.
The allegations were uncovered as prosecutors investigated doping allegations at Juventus, Italy's most popular and successful club.
That separate inquiry resulted in club doctor Riccardo Agricola being found guilty of administering drugs to players in the mid-90s.
