According to this TV station, Juventus named Gianluca Pessotto as new Team Manager. He'll replace Alessio Secco who just got promoted to Sports Director yesterday.

I think if we were to be be demoted based on the quality of our websites, Juventus would sure be in Serie B or lower by now. Delayed news, english section sucks, no video's, I can go on... :(

    Didnt they say they will hire professionals?


    BTW

    Juve look to past for President
    Wednesday 24 May, 2006
    Juventus President Franzo Grande Stevens has resigned and the club will look to “a great figure from the past” to take over.

    Grande Stevens told the Press yesterday that he wished to be relieved of his duties and the meeting at Ifil – the Agnelli family owned company that runs Juve – accepted the proposal.

    “The next President will be a great Juventus figure from the past, but not a Frenchman. In this phase, we need to face the situation head on with expert people, professionals and those competent in their specific fields,” explained John Elkann, the nephew of Gianni Agnelli.

    Several names had been put forward for the position, including Michel Platini and Didier Deschamps (pictured), but Elkann effectively ruled them out with this statement.

    The most likely options are now Gianluca Vialli, Dino Zoff and Franco Causio, all former Bianconeri legends.

    “Grande Stevens has already been altogether too generous with this club. He leaves this post, but remains within our family, as we need his skills in other areas. I can say that none of the Agnelli family will join the new Board of Directors.”

    The club is at the centre of the scandal dubbed 'Calciopoli’ and there are reports they could face anything from docked points to demotion and seeing the last two Scudetto titles stripped from their records.

    “The last two Scudetti felt exactly the same as the previous 27,” assured Elkann when asked if he felt uneasy at celebrating under these circumstances.

    This will probably mix up some things...

    Excellent news as far as I'm concerned, Pessotto may not be a professional but being a player I'm sure he has relevant knowledge on the role of team manager.

    Most importantly however, having a figure such as Il Professore in the dressing room will be invaluable. :thumbs:
