Category: <b>General</b><br><br>Juventus legend Michel Platini will have a part to play in the future of the club, according to reports in Italy.
The Italian giants are on the verge of starting a new era after the whole board of directors resigned on Thursday in the aftermath of the telephone interception saga which has rocked the Italian game.
As a result, the Old Lady are looking for a replacement for chief operating officer Antonio Giraudo and director general Luciano Moggi.
Jean Claude Blanc and Carlo Sant’Albano are in contention to step in for Giraudo, but there are concerns that their lack of experience in the football world could be a handicap.
Yet John Elkann, an Agnelli whose family hold a controlling share in the outfit, wants Platini to be of assistance.
Although the Frenchman can’t be handed a full-time position as he is in the race for the top FIFA job, Elkann reportedly wants Platini to act as an advisor.
It’s unclear at this stage whether the Frenchman would accept such an option even if the close relationship he had with Gianni Agnelli, Elkann’s grandfather, could be a decisive factor.
Replacing Moggi seems to be a much simpler task for the Italian giants with two men in the race to succeed the transfer chief.
