Marotta plans to restore Juve pride
Tuesday 18 May, 2010
Juventus' new general manager Beppe Marotta says that he intends to restore the club to its former glory.
Marotta is the first building block in Juventus' ambitious plans to rebuild the club from top to bottom.
He arrives from Sampdoria along with Gigi Del Neri who will replace Alberto Zaccheroni on Juventus' bench.
“Juventus are in a situation that doesn't agree with its history. I don't have a magic wand, but there is a young President and I hope to re-launch the club from a sporting point of view.
When asked if Juve need reviving, he said: “Revive is a strong word. I would say Juve need to be made compact again.”
Marotta then reflected on the news that Del Neri intends to follow him to Turin.
“It's normal that a team who wants to aim high looks for the best and Del Neri is considered one of the best.
“Sure I would never want to treat Sampdoria with discourtesy. I would like it if it were made clear that Juventus is not only Marotta.

The man speaks wise and from a former outsiders positions seems to know what we need. He saw Juve from the outside when Samp beat us, I think he speaks about 100 times more intelligently than Secco
