It’s only been less than 48 hours since Monday’s shocking announcement, but Juventus fans are starting to digest the news.
After 12 years in the service, Andrea Agnelli is no longer president of the club following his resignation along with the rest of the board amid mounting financial and legal problems.
Majority owner John Elkann has already replaced his cousin with Gianluca Ferrero, while Maurizio Scanavino has become the new CEO.
But what worries the fans the most is how this unexpected reorganization will affect the club sportingly.
Apparently, the sporting department will remain intact with Federico Cherubini at the helm and Max Allegri remaining on the bench.
But can the club continue to interfere in the market as previously planned amid financial chaos?
According to Ilbianconero, Juventus will have a cautious transfer session in January. In fact, management could make a signing or two, but they’ll probably come on loan or at a reduced price.
The source adds that despite the dire financial situation, the new men in charge are still intent on keeping the club competitive on the pitch.
Juve FC says
Even before Monday’s bombshell, all the signs suggested that Juventus do not have the wherewithal to pull off big hits this winter.
Naturally, the latest developments will inevitably affect the team, but we can only hope that the ramifications remain minimal.
