The already ex-president has sacked during the board that appointed to the new maximum mandator, Gianluca Ferrero. Agnelli, that recognised to be very thrilled, announced also his exit of the managerial boards of the companies of family that contribute in the stock exchange, Exor and Stellantis.

Of the contrary, there will be an inexorable decreasing and the Premier League will be increasingly dominadora, attracting all the talent for his championship", highlighted.

Agnelli Equally wanted to remember to his allies in Spain: "I Want to thank him Real Madrid and Barça, that, together with the Juve, had the courage to confront to the sanctions loomed by the UEFA". Of course also it mentioned to the UEFA and FIFA, commenting that "the regulators do not want to confront with the problems, want to retain his positions of privilege".

By his part, Gianluca Ferrero, after having received of his ancestor a T-shirt bianconera with the dorsal 1, spoke directly to the Italian fans. "We go to work to build a future to the height of the past of the Juve, 125 years that did of this club a glory of the sportive world and the best of Italy. We go to defend the Juve in all the fields, sportive, penal and civil. We will do it with determination and without arrogance".
