Former Juventus player Emanuele Giaccherini believes Alessandro Del Piero’s return to the club is imminent.
The former Juventus president and his board have resigned and a new one will be formed next month.
Typically, a former standout player sits on the board with Pavel Nedved filling that role on the previous board.
However, they have now resigned and the bianconeri are likely to find another prominent club legend to play a role in the new leadership.
Speaking about the possibility of Del Piero returning to the club, Giaccherini said via Tuttomercatoweb:
“I think Alex is the right person that Juve needs today. And not only because of the rich past of triumphs but because of the depth of the man. His return to Juve, sooner or later, seems obvious to me and not just as a symbolic character.
Juve FC says
Del Piero is one of our best former players and is loved by most of the club’s fans. It is clear that the fans and the former players favor his return in an official capacity.
With Agnelli gone, the former striker is good enough to take on a prominent role like Paolo Maldini has at AC Milan at the moment.
However, we must allow the new leadership to do their job and give it back no matter who they select.
