Question juridique clé
Whether the CAS panel was irregularly composed because Luigi Fumagalli allegedly lacked independence.
Solution extraite
The allegation was unproven; no objectively established circumstances showed that Fumagalli should have been recused.
Motifs extraits
The anonymous email was not corroborated, and Fumagalli’s detailed declaration denied the alleged links to Chelsea’s controller. The court accepted that the recusal ground was not established.
