Marcello Lippi : “I really became fond of him and I think that it was a mutual feeling. We are obviously sad now but were were already since we had known he was ill. I remember that he would have liked to see the third “star” on the bianconera shirt: he’ll surely do it from Heaven”.
Alessandro Del Piero : “It’s a very sad day for all of us. He was a person with great ability in judging situations and understanding the football world, being a real expert in that. Juventus and Ferrari were his huge passions but the whole Italy will miss this man of extraordinary class. My nickname Pinturicchio? I remember with joy that episode, along with many other memories. He was always attentive to everything and often I received his early morning calls. I’ve always been astonished by his ability in surprising everyone in all the situations, as he was so capable of giving reasons for reflecting“.
Roberto Bettega : "In this moment of deep sadness, so many memories came to my mind, infact in every period of my life that I've spent in Juventus, as player and as man, Avvocato Giovanni Agnelli has always been my referring point and a constant presence, with his charism and cleverness. Through him, symbol of my homecity Turin, I've learnt to love Juventus. And from today I'll keep on loving it even for him".
Antonio Giraudo : "The death of Avvocato Agnelli ha caused inside all of us deep sadness and commotion. He was an example, representing in a remarkable way our city and our country in the whole world. The Avvocato Agnelli was a huge passionate about sports, football especially, world that always loved and for which he appreciated the genius and creativity of its champions. Anyway, in this moment, there are no words to express fully our feelings".
