Alessandro Del Piero's future has again been thrown into confusion, after a member of the Agnelli family - the club's financial backers - suggested that he was a luxury they could not afford.
Del Piero is no longer an automatic starter for Juventus, and it was heavily rumoured that the player could be sold on by the club that once considered him their talisman.
President Gianni Agnelli's nephew, Lapo Elkann has now made the broadest hint that the club's hierarchy believe the time has come to offload the Italy international.
"Del Piero costs too much for what he returns," said Elkann to Il Giornale.
"He's a luxury we cannot afford."
Del Piero's team-mates have immediately rallied round the forward, with Brazilian Emerson backing him to prove his critics wrong.
"Del Piero is no luxury," said Emerson.
"He's a part of the team and all the squad have the same value.
"He is not just a player who sits on the bench. He has battled back from injury and is training hard to get back up to match fitness."
Now, Im no Del Piero Lover, he is my fav player yes, but Im not biased in favour of him... BUT, I really think this statement of Lapo is totally out of place and I really stupid comment.
True of false, this comments the only thing that do is create problems inside the team and we don't need that, if you want to make those comments do it on january when the market is open.
I reallly dislike this Lapo fellow, he is sooooooo dumb to talk about soccer, he should lshut up and let the soccer to the Triade...
And what worryes me the most is that this fellow is the one who will take the charge in Juventus when the triade is gone :down:
