There was confusion as to why Pavel Nedved, former legend and current member of staff, was not at Thursday’s inauguration ceremony for the Juventus Stadium.
“It is absolutely not true that there were disagreements on transfer strategy,” assured Marotta.
“He is a technical counsellor, a role that a club like ours needs. He was the Ballon d’Or, a great professional and player. He was kept away from the ceremony by an event in his home country that he considered to be important.”
