I think it's more due to Silvio's death and the lack of funding as a consequence. Previously, they've been doing pretty good making a good profit on players like DiGre, Carlos Augusto, Colpani or Malidni.
Good luck Modesto. First time ever Juve hired a technical director.
“This club boasts an extraordinary history and a culture of winning that I deeply admire. I am excited to begin this new journey.”

And this is for @Badass J Elkann to know the exact job tasks of the role:
“Modesto’s role will be central in coordinating between the technical area (match analysis, medical department, performance, and psychology) and Igor Tudor’s staff, helping to strengthen the club’s sporting identity.”
