Marotta: ‘Next level for Juventus’
By Football Italia staff


Director general Beppe Marotta says he is aiming to raise Juventus' level of quality, whilst discussing Paul Pogba's potential transfer.

The Bianconeri seem not to feel the much-discussed decline of Italian football as they are a distant first in Serie A and can look forward to a Champions League quarter-final against Monaco.

Even so, their director general is insisting that this is only the beginning.

“We want to go even higher and meet even more targets. We can do that, because we sculpted our team year by year,” Marotta has told the Corriere della Sera today.

“And next year we want to raise our level of quality again. I won't name names, but the players we have already provide us with certainties.

“Players like Pogba or [Carlos] Tevez are the result of a specific knowledge with the best young players around, thanks to broad scouting work.

“It also stems from our ability to develop a relationship with established players who perhaps want to change their environment.

“Our appeal has changed so much. We used to struggle to convince players to join us, like [Udinese striker Antonio] Di Natale, who turned down an offer.

“Now people compete to join us. And I mean players with a high profile, what you call top players.”

On the subject of top players, Marotta was able to discuss midfielder Paul Pogba, who could speculatively leave Juventus at the end of the season.

“Pogba is still master of his own destiny, and if he chooses to leave then it will be hard for the club to keep him.

“He's given no sign that he wants to go away. The problem is when a player is offered a contract that can be two or three times higher than what he's currently earning.

“We're talking about a net €10m salary per season.”
What does he mean by this?

Oh, and a big happy birthday to the great man.

Juventus director general Beppe Marotta believes Milan and Inter's crisis harms all of Italian football, whilst he compares Antonio Conte and Max Allegri.

The Bianconeri are currently leading Serie A with a gap of 14 points over second-placed Roma, and they seem to be left with scant domestic competition, as Marotta himself admitted.


“In order to win you need team with a core tough as granite,” he remarked, in an interview with the Corriere della Sera.


“If you shake things up constantly it becomes hard to find the 'amalgam' that Massimino [Allegri] wanted to acquire.


“The crisis of Milan and Inter damages the whole movement. It would be good to compete for the Scudetto against them too.”


Marotta was also asked about the transition from Conte to Allegri, which was also discussed by Coach Marcello Lippi in an interview published today.


“We knew we were running the risk of a popular revolt, not to mention one in the media. But we chose the best man available at that moment.


“We supported him, too. If you put a Coach in the conditions to work well, he can give his best. And that's what Allegri is doing.


“I'd rather not have heard Conte's phrase on how you ‘don't go into a €100 restaurant with a €10 note’. But it's part of his character.


“I think that club, Coach and players are worth 33 per cent each. In the absence of Conte, we needed to find new incentives.”


Marotta then went on to discuss the situation with his strikers, in particular Carlos Tevez and Alvaro Morata.


“Carlos has a contract until 2016 and we still haven't talked about it. We owe him much, but he owes much to the club too. If he chooses to leave Juve, we'll have to adapt ourselves.


“As for Morata, we made some technical decisions, but with an eye to our finances.


“We sold [Ciro] Immobile because he wanted to go to Borussia [Dortmund] and we placed our chips on Morata because he was the right young player for us.


“But it's premature to call him a champion. We need him to confirm himself for a second year.”


:lol: He pretty much said "We need to make sure he won't Llorente"

Exactly what I have been telling all this while when some people tend to give full credit to Conte over success during his time. It's not him alone its a combination of all these and don't forget the new stadium. And Marotta has just confirmed it as well.

I take it a player like Pogba is truly useful when appealing to new targets. When we turned to Coman last summer, it went pretty smooth and easy as opposed to what Marotta has been used to since taking over at Juve. It is because Coman wanted Juve and that so, because we have quality stars that appeals in our books - in this case Pogba.

“Now people compete to join us. And I mean players with a high profile, what you call top players.” This is probably between Zaza and Berardi :klin:
