Football club

Juventus 👄 Football Club (from Latin: iuventūs, 'youth'; Italian pronunciation: [juˈvɛntus]), colloquially known as Juve ( pronounced [ˈjuːve]),[5] is an Italian professional 👄 football club based in Turin, Piedmont, that competes in the Serie A, the top tier of the Italian football league 👄 system. Founded in 1897 by a group of Torinese students, the club has worn a black and white striped home 👄 kit since 1903 and has played home matches in different grounds around its city, the latest being the 41,507-capacity Juventus 👄 Stadium. Nicknamed la Vecchia Signora ("the Old Lady"), the club has won 36 official league titles, 14 Coppa Italia titles 👄 and nine Supercoppa Italiana titles, being the record holder for all these competitions; two Intercontinental Cups, two European Cups / 👄 UEFA Champions Leagues, one European Cup Winners' Cup, a joint national record of three UEFA Cups, two UEFA Super Cups 👄 and a joint national record of one UEFA Intertoto Cup.[6][7] Consequently, the side leads the historical Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio 👄 (FIGC) classification,[c] whilst on the international stage the club occupies the sixth position in Europe and the twelfth in the 👄 world for most confederation titles won with eleven trophies,[9] as well as the fourth in the all-time Union of European 👄 Football Associations (UEFA) competitions ranking,[d] having obtained the highest coefficient score during seven seasons since its introduction in 1979, the 👄 most for an Italian team in both cases and joint second overall in the last cited.

Founded with the name of 👄 Sport-Club Juventus, initially as an athletics club,[11] it is the second oldest of its kind still active in the country 👄 after Genoa's football section (1893) and has competed every season of the premier club division (reformulated in different formats until 👄 the Serie A inception in 1929) since its debut in 1900 with the exception of the 2006–07 season, being managed 👄 by the industrial Agnelli family almost continuously since 1923.[e] The relationship between the club and that dynasty is the oldest 👄 and longest in national sports, making Juventus one of the first professional sporting clubs ante litteram in the country, having 👄 established itself as a major force in the national stage since the 1930s and at confederation level since the mid-1970s,[14] 👄 and becoming, in a nearly stable basis, one of the top-ten wealthiest in world football in terms of value, revenue 👄 and profit since the mid-1990s,[15] being listed on the Borsa Italiana since 2001.[16]

Under the management of Giovanni Trapattoni, the club 👄 won 13 trophies in the ten years before 1986, including six league titles and five international titles, and became the 👄 first to win all three seasonal competitions organised by the Union of European Football Associations: the 1976–77 UEFA Cup (first 👄 Southern European side to do so), the 1983–84 Cup Winners' Cup and the 1984–85 European Champions' Cup.[17] With successive triumphs 👄 in the 1984 European Super Cup and 1985 Intercontinental Cup, it became the first and thus far only in the 👄 world to complete a clean sweep of all five historical confederation trophies;[18] an achievement that they revalidated with the title 👄 won in the 1999 UEFA Intertoto Cup after another successful era led by Marcello Lippi,[19] becoming in addition, until 2024, 👄 the only professional Italian club to have won every ongoing honour available to the first team and organised by a 👄 national or international football association.[f] In December 2000, Juventus was placed seventh in the FIFA's historic ranking of the best 👄 clubs in the world,[20] and nine years later was ranked second best club in Europe during the 20th century based 👄 on a statistical study series by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS), the highest for an Italian 👄 club in both.[21]

The club's fan base is the largest at national level and one of the largest worldwide.[22][23] Unlike most 👄 European sporting supporters' groups, which are often concentrated around their own club's city of origin, it is widespread throughout the 👄 whole country and the Italian diaspora, making Juventus a symbol of anticampanilismo ("anti-parochialism") and italianità ("Italianness").[25] Juventus players have won 👄 eight Ballon d'Or awards, four of these in consecutive years (1982–1985, an overall joint record), among these Michel Platini as 👄 well as three of the five recipients with Italian nationality as the first player representing Serie A, Omar Sívori, and 👄 the former member of the youth sector Paolo Rossi; they have also won four FIFA World Player of the Year 👄 awards, with winners as Roberto Baggio and Zinedine Zidane, a national record and third and joint second highest overall, respectively, 👄 in the cited prizes. Finally, the club has also provided the most players to the Italy national team—mostly in official 👄 competitions in almost uninterrupted way since 1924—who often formed the group that led the Azzurri squad to international success, most 👄 importantly in the 1934, 1982 and 2006 FIFA World Cups.[27]

History

Early years (1897–1918)

One of the first Juventus club shot, 1899

Juventus was 👄 founded as Sport-Club Juventus in late 1897 by pupils from the Massimo d'Azeglio Lyceum school in Turin, among them Eugenio 👄 Canfari and Enrico Canfari.[28] It was renamed as Foot-Ball Club Juventus two years later.[29] The club joined the 1900 Italian 👄 Football Championship. Juventus played their first Italian Football Championship match on 11 March 1900 in a 1–0 defeat against Torinese.[30]

The 👄 Juventus team during the 1905 season in which they won their first league title

In 1904, businessman Marco Ajmone-Marsan revived the 👄 finances of Juventus, making it possible to transfer the training field from piazza d'armi to the more appropriate Velodrome Umberto 👄 I. During this period, the team wore a pink and black kit. Juventus first won the 1905 Italian Football Championship 👄 while playing at their Velodrome Umberto I ground. By this time, the club colours had changed to black and white 👄 stripes, inspired by English side Notts County.[31]

There was a split at the club in 1906, after some of the staff 👄 considered moving Juve out of Turin.[29] Alfred Dick, the club's president,[g] was unhappy with this, and left with some prominent 👄 players to found FBC Torino, which in turn spawned the Derby della Mole.[32] Juventus spent much of this period steadily 👄 rebuilding after the split, surviving the First World War.[31]

League dominance (1923–1980)

FIAT vicepresident Edoardo Agnelli was elected club's president in 1923 👄 and a new stadium was inaugurated one year before.[29] This helped the club to its second league championship in the 👄 1925–26 Prima Divisione, after beating Alba Roma in a two-legged final with an aggregate score of 12–1.[31] The club established 👄 itself as a major force in Italian football since the 1930s, becoming the country's first professional club and the first 👄 with a decentralised fan base, which led it to win a record of five consecutive Italian football championships and form 👄 the core of the Italy national football team during the Vittorio Pozzo's era, including the 1934 FIFA World Cup champions, 👄 with star players like Raimundo Orsi, Luigi Bertolini, Giovanni Ferrari, and Luis Monti, among others.[34][35] As of 2024, it is 👄 the club with the most FIFA World Cup champions at 27.[36]

Juventus moved to the Stadio Comunale, but for the rest 👄 of the 1930s and the majority of the 1940s they were unable to recapture championship dominance. After the Second World 👄 War, Gianni Agnelli was appointed president.[29] In the late 1940s and early 1950s, the club added two more league championships 👄 to its name, winning the 1949–50 Serie A under the management of Englishman Jesse Carver, and then repeating in the 👄 1951–52 Serie A. For the 1957–58 Serie A, two new strikers, Welshman John Charles and Italian Argentine Omar Sívori, were 👄 signed to play alongside longtime member Giampiero Boniperti. In the 1959–60 Juventus F.C. season, they beat Fiorentina to complete their 👄 first league and cup double, winning the 1959–60 Serie A and the 1960 Coppa Italia final. Boniperti retired in 1961 👄 as the all-time top scorer at the club, with 182 goals in all competitions, a club record that stood for 👄 45 years.[37]

During the rest of the decade, the club only won the 1966–67 Serie A.[31] The 1970s saw Juventus further 👄 solidify their strong position in Italian football, and under former player Čestmír Vycpálek they won the scudetto in the 1971–72 👄 Serie A, and followed through in the 1972–73 Serie A,[31] with players like as Roberto Bettega, Franco Causio, and José 👄 Altafini breaking through. During the rest of the decade, they won the league thrice more, with defender Gaetano Scirea contributing 👄 significantly. The latter two success in Serie A was under Giovanni Trapattoni, who also led the club to their first 👄 ever major European title, the 1976–77 UEFA Cup, and helped the club's domination continue on into the early part of 👄 the 1980s.[38]

European stage (1980–1993)

The Trapattoni era was highly successful in the 1980s and the club started the decade off well, 👄 winning the league title three more times by 1984.[31] This meant Juventus had won 20 Italian league titles and were 👄 allowed to add a second golden star to their shirt, becoming the only Italian club to achieve this.[38] Around this 👄 time, the club's players were attracting considerable attention, and Paolo Rossi was named European Footballer of the Year following his 👄 contribution to Italy's victory in the 1982 FIFA World Cup, where he was named Player of the Tournament.

Frenchman Michel Platini 👄 was awarded the European Footballer of the Year title for three years in a row in 1983, 1984 and 1985, 👄 which is a record.[40] Juventus are the first and one of the only two clubs to have players from their 👄 club winning the award in four consecutive years.[41][h] It was Platini who scored the winning goal in the 1985 European 👄 Cup final against Liverpool; this was marred by the Heysel Stadium disaster, which changed European football.[43] That year, Juventus became 👄 the first club in the history of European football to have won all three major UEFA competitions;[44][45] after their triumph 👄 in the 1985 Intercontinental Cup, the club also became the first and thus far the only in association football history 👄 to have won all five possible confederation competitions,[46] an achievement that it revalidated with a sixth title won in the 👄 1999 UEFA Intertoto Cup.[48]

With the exception of winning the closely contested 1985–86 Serie A, the rest of the 1980s were 👄 not very successful for the club. As well as having to contend with Diego Maradona's Napoli, both of the Milanese 👄 clubs, A.C. Milan and Inter Milan, won Italian championships; Juventus achieved a double by winning the 1989–90 Coppa Italia and 👄 the 1990 UEFA Cup final under the guidance of former club legend Dino Zoff.[31] In 1990, Juventus also moved into 👄 their new home, the Stadio delle Alpi, which was built for the 1990 FIFA World Cup. Despite the arrival of 👄 Italian star Roberto Baggio later that year for a world football transfer record fee, the early 1990s under Luigi Maifredi 👄 and subsequently Trapattoni once again also saw little success for Juventus, as they only managed to win the 1993 UEFA 👄 Cup final.[50]

Renewed international success (1994–2004)

Marcello Lippi took over as Juventus manager at the start of the 1994–95 Serie A.[29] His 👄 first season at the helm of the club was a successful one, as Juventus recorded their first Serie A championship 👄 title since the mid-1980s, as well as the 1995 Coppa Italia final.[31] The crop of players during this period featured 👄 Ciro Ferrara, Roberto Baggio, Gianluca Vialli, and a young Alessandro Del Piero. Lippi led Juventus to the 1995 Supercoppa Italiana 👄 and the 1995–96 UEFA Champions League, beating Ajax on penalties after a 1–1 draw in which Fabrizio Ravanelli scored for 👄 Juventus.[51]

The club did not rest long after winning the European Cup, as more highly regarded players were brought into the 👄 fold in the form of Zinedine Zidane, Filippo Inzaghi, and Edgar Davids. At home, Juventus won the 1996–97 Serie A, 👄 successfully defended their title in the 1997–98 Serie A, won the 1996 UEFA Super Cup,[52] and followed through with the 👄 1996 Intercontinental Cup.[53] Juventus reached two consecutive Champions League finals during this period but lost out to Borussia Dortmund and 👄 Real Madrid,[54][55] respectively in 1997 and 1998.[56][57]

After a two-and-a-half-season absence, Lippi returned to the club in 2001, following his replacement 👄 Carlo Ancelotti's dismissal, signing big name players like Gianluigi Buffon, David Trezeguet, Pavel Nedvěd, and Lilian Thuram, helping the team 👄 to win the 2001–02 Serie A, which was their first since 1998, and confirmed themselves in the 2002–03 Serie A.[31] 👄 Juventus were also part of the all Italian 2003 UEFA Champions League final but lost out to Milan on penalties 👄 after the game ended in a 0–0 draw. At the conclusion of the following season, Lippi was appointed as the 👄 Italy national team's head coach, bringing an end to one of the most fruitful managerial spells in Juventus's history.[38]

Calciopoli scandal 👄 (2004–2007)

Fabio Capello was appointed as Juventus's coach in 2004 and led the club to two more consecutive Serie A first 👄 places. In May 2006, Juventus emerged as one of the five clubs linked to the Calciopoli scandal. In July, Juventus 👄 was placed at the bottom of the league table and relegated to Serie B for the first time in its 👄 history. The club was also stripped of the 2004–05 Serie A title, while the 2005–06 Serie A winner, after a 👄 period sub judice, was declared to be third-placed Inter Milan.[58] This remains a much debated and controversial issue,[59][60][61] particularly due 👄 to Inter Milan's later revealed involvement, the 2004 championship (the sole being investigated) deemed regular and not fixed,[62][63][64] Juventus being 👄 absolved as club in the ordinary justice proceedings,[65][66] their renounce to the Italian civil courts appeal, which could have cleared 👄 the club's name and avoid relegation, after FIFA threatened to suspend the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) and barring all Italian 👄 clubs from international play,[67][68][69] and the motivations,[70] such as sentimento popolare (people's feelings),[71] and the newly created ad-hoc rule used 👄 to relegate the club.[72][73][74]

Star goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon was among a group of players who remained with the club following their 👄 demotion to Serie B in 2006.

Many key players left following their relegation to Serie B, including Thuram, star striker Zlatan 👄 Ibrahimović, midfielders Emerson and Patrick Vieira, and defensive stalwarts Fabio Cannavaro and Gianluca Zambrotta;[75] other big name players, such as 👄 Del Piero, Buffon, Trezeguet, and Nedvěd, as well as the club's future defense core Giorgio Chiellini, remained to help the 👄 club return to Serie A,[76] while youngsters from the Campionato Nazionale Primavera (youth team), such as Sebastian Giovinco and Claudio 👄 Marchisio, were integrated into the first team.[77][78] Juventus won the Cadetti title (Serie B championship) despite starting with a points 👄 deduction and gained promotion straight back up to the top division, with Del Piero claiming the top scorer award with 👄 21 goals, as league winners after the 2006–07 Serie B season.[79]

As early as 2010, when many other clubs were implicated 👄 and Inter Milan, Livorno, and Milan liable of direct Article 6 violations in the 2011 Palazzi Report, Juventus considered challenging 👄 the stripping of their scudetto from 2006 and the non-assignment of the 2005 title, dependent on the results of Calciopoli 👄 trials connected to the 2006 scandal.[80] When former general manager Luciano Moggi's conviction in criminal court in connection with the 👄 scandal was partially written off by the Supreme Court in March 2024,[81][82] the club sued the FIGC for €443 million 👄 for damages caused by their 2006 relegation. Then-FIGC president Carlo Tavecchio offered to discuss reinstatement of the lost scudetti in 👄 exchange for Juventus dropping the lawsuit.[83]

In September 2024, the Supreme Court released a 150-page document that explained its final ruling 👄 of the case, based on the controversial 2006 sports ruling, which did not take in consideration the other clubs involved 👄 because they could not be put on trial due to the statute of limitations, and it would be necessary to 👄 request and open a revocation of judgment pursuant to Article 39 of the Code of Sports Justice. Despite his remaining 👄 charges being cancelled without a new trial due to statute of limitations, the court confirmed that Moggi was actively involved 👄 in the sporting fraud, which was intended to favour Juventus and increase his own personal benefits according to La Gazzetta 👄 dello Sport.[84] As did the Naples court in 2012,[85][86] the court commented that the developments and behavior of other clubs 👄 and executives were not investigated in depth.[87] Once they exhausted their appeals in Italy's courts,[88] both Moggi and Giraudo appealed 👄 to the European Court of Human Rights in March 2024; Giraudo's was accepted in September 2024.[89][90] Juventus continued to present 👄 new appeals,[91] which were declared inadmissible.[92]

Return to Serie A (2007–2011)

After making their comeback for the 2007–08 Serie A, Juventus appointed 👄 Claudio Ranieri as manager.[93] They finished in third place in their first season back in the top flight and qualified 👄 for the 2008–09 UEFA Champions League's third qualifying round in the preliminary stages. Juventus reached the group stages, where they 👄 beat Real Madrid in both home and away legs, before losing in the knockout round to Chelsea. Ranieri was sacked 👄 following a string of unsuccessful results and Ciro Ferrara was appointed as manager on a temporary basis for the last 👄 two games of the 2008–09 Serie A,[94] before being subsequently appointed as the manager for the 2009–10 Serie A.[95]

Ferrara's stint 👄 as Juventus manager proved to be unsuccessful, with Juventus knocked out of 2009–10 UEFA Champions League, and also of the 👄 2009–10 Coppa Italia, as well as just lying on the sixth place in the league table at the end of 👄 January 2010, leading to the dismissal of Ferrara and the naming of Alberto Zaccheroni as caretaker manager. Zaccheroni could not 👄 help the side improve, as Juventus finished the season in seventh place in Serie A. For the 2010–11 Serie A, 👄 Jean-Claude Blanc was replaced by Andrea Agnelli as the club's president. Agnelli's first action was to replace Zaccheroni and director 👄 of sport Alessio Secco with Sampdoria manager Luigi Delneri and director of sport Giuseppe Marotta.[96] Delneri failed to improve their 👄 fortunes and was dismissed, and former player and fan favourite Antonio Conte, fresh after winning promotion with Siena, was named 👄 as Delneri's replacement.[97] In September 2011, Juventus relocated to the new Juventus Stadium, known as the Allianz Stadium since 2024.[98]

Nine 👄 consecutive scudetti (2011–2024)

Playmaker Andrea Pirlo playing for Juventus in 2012

With Conte as manager, Juventus were unbeaten for the entire 2011–12 👄 Serie A season. Towards the second half of the season, the team was mostly competing with northern rivals Milan for 👄 first place in a tight contest. Juventus won the title on the 37th matchday after beating Cagliari 2–0 and Milan 👄 losing to Inter 4–2. After a 3–1 win in the final matchday against Atalanta, Juventus became the first team to 👄 go the season unbeaten in the current 38-game format.[99] In 2013–14 Serie A, Juventus won a third consecutive scudetto with 👄 a record 102 points and 33 wins.[100][101] The title was the 30th official league championship in the club's history.[102] They 👄 also achieved the semi-finals of 2013–14 UEFA Europa League, where they were eliminated at home against ten-man Benfica's catenaccio, missing 👄 the 2014 UEFA Europa League final at the Juventus Stadium.[103][104]

In the 2014–15 Serie A, Massimiliano Allegri was appointed as manager, 👄 with whom Juventus won their 31st official title, making it a fourth-straight, as well as achieving a record tenth Coppa 👄 Italia, after beating Lazio 2–2 in the 2024 Coppa Italia final, for the domestic double.[105] The club also beat Real 👄 Madrid 3–2 on aggregate in the semi-finals of the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League to face Barcelona in the 2024 UEFA 👄 Champions League final in Berlin for the first time since the 2002–03 UEFA Champions League.[106] Juventus lost the final against 👄 Barcelona 3–1.[107] In the 2024 Coppa Italia final, the club won the title for the 11th time and second straight 👄 win, becoming the first team in Italy's history to win Serie A and Coppa Italia doubles in back-to-back seasons.[108][109][110]

In the 👄 2024 Coppa Italia final, Juventus won their 12th Coppa Italia title in a 2–0 win over Lazio, becoming the first 👄 team to win three consecutive titles.[111] Four days later on 21 May, Juventus became the first team to win six 👄 consecutive Serie A titles.[112] In the 2024 UEFA Champions League final, their second Champions League final in three years, Juventus 👄 were defeated 1–4 by defending champions Real Madrid; the 2024 Turin stampede happened ten minutes before the end of the 👄 match.[113][114] In the 2024 Coppa Italia final, Juventus won their 13th title and fourth in a row in a 4–0 👄 win over Milan, extending the all-time record of successive Coppa Italia titles.[115] Juventus then secured their seventh consecutive Serie A 👄 title, extending the all-time record of successive triumphs in the competition.[116] In the 2024 Supercoppa Italiana, which was held in 👄 January 2024, Juventus and Milan, who were tied for Supercoppa Italiana wins with seven each, played against each other; Juventus 👄 won their eight title after beating Milan 1–0.[117] In April 2024, Juventus secured their eighth consecutive Serie A title, further 👄 extending the all-time record of successive triumphs in the competition.[118] Following Allegri's departure,[119] Maurizio Sarri was appointed manager of the 👄 club ahead of the 2024–20 Juventus F.C. season.[120] Juventus were confirmed 2024–20 Serie A champions, reaching an unprecedented milestone of 👄 nine consecutive league titles.[121]

Recent history (2024–present)

On 8 August 2024, Sarri was sacked from his managerial position, one day after Juventus 👄 were eliminated from the 2024–20 UEFA Champions League by Lyon.[122] On the same day, former player Andrea Pirlo was announced 👄 as the new coach, signing a two-year contract.[123] In the 2024 Supercoppa Italiana, which was held in January 2024, Juventus 👄 won their ninth title after a 2–0 victory against Napoli.[124] With Inter Milan's win of the 2024–21 Serie A, Juventus's 👄 run of nine consecutive titles came to an end;[125] the club managed to secure a fourth-place finish on the final 👄 day of the league, granting Juventus qualification to the following season's Champions League.[126] In the 2024 Coppa Italia final, Juventus 👄 won their 14th title.[127] On 28 May, Juventus sacked Pirlo from his managerial position,[128][129] and announced Allegri's return to the 👄 club as manager after two years away from management on a four-year contract.[130] Although Allegri had considered the victory of 👄 the scudetto as a seasonal goal,[131] Juventus reached another fourth place in the league.[132] After losing 4–2 after extra time 👄 to Inter Milan in the 2024 Coppa Italia final, the 2024–22 Juventus F.C. season marked the first season since 2010–11 👄 in which the club had not won a trophy.[132]

In the 2024–23 season, Juventus had one victory and five defeats in 👄 their Champions League group, achieving their worst-ever score (3 points) and their greatest-ever number of losses in the competition's group 👄 stage.[133] Through their better goal difference over fourth-placed Maccabi Haifa, the team finished third and dropped down into the Europa 👄 League,[133] in which they were defeated 2–1 by Sevilla after extra time at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium in the 👄 semi-final.[134] On 28 November 2024, the entire board of directors resigned from their respective positions, Andrea Agnelli as president, Pavel 👄 Nedvěd as vice president, and Maurizio Arrivabene as CEO.[135][136][137] Agnelli's presidency was the most victorious of the club's history, with 👄 19 titles won.[138] Exor, the club's controlling shareholder, appointed Gianluca Ferrero as its new chairman ahead of the shareholders' meeting 👄 on 18 January 2024.[139]

Two days later, after being acquitted by the FIGC's Court of Appeal in April–May 2024,[140][141][142] Juventus were 👄 deducted 15 points as punishment for capital gain violations,[143] as part of an investigation related to the 2024–2024 budgets during 👄 the COVID-19 pandemic starting in November 2024.[144] This was harsher than the point deduction recommended by the FIGC prosecutor, who 👄 said that in the standings Juventus "must now finish behind Roma, outside the European Cup area".[145][146] The penalty caused an 👄 uproar and protests among Juventus supporters,[147] who cancelled, or threatened to do so, their Sky Sport and DAZN subscriptions.[148][149][150] Following 👄 Juventus's appeal, the decision had initially been reversed on 20 April 2024,[151] but the club were given a new penalty, 👄 this time of ten points, on 22 May.[152] Within the aforementioned FIGC's inquiry, on 29 May, Juventus proposed a plea 👄 bargain for their false accounting on staff salaries;[153][154] the request was accepted one day later and Juventus only received a 👄 fine of €718,240 without any further penalty.[155] Juventus finished the 2024–23 Serie A in seventh place and qualified to the 👄 UEFA Europa Conference League with 62 points.[i][156] However, on 28 July, UEFA ejected Juventus from its competitions for one year 👄 as the club violated a settlement agreement with UEFA signed in August 2024.[157] The 2024–24 season was the first in 👄 which Juventus did not participate to UEFA competitions since 2011–12.[157]

Crest and colours

Juventus have played in black and white striped shirts, 👄 with white shorts, sometimes black shorts since 1903. Originally, they played in pink shirts with a black tie. The father 👄 of one of the players made the earliest shirts, but continual washing faded the colour so much that in 1903 👄 the club sought to replace them.[158] Juventus asked one of their team members, Englishman John Savage, if he had any 👄 contacts in England who could supply new shirts in a colour that would better withstand the elements. He had a 👄 friend who lived in Nottingham, who being a Notts County supporter, shipped out the black and white striped shirts to 👄 Turin.[158] Juventus have worn the shirts ever since, considering the colours to be aggressive and powerful.[158]

Juventus's official emblem has undergone 👄 different and small modifications since the 1920s. The previous modification of the Juventus badge took place in 2004, when the 👄 emblem of the team changed to a black-and-white oval shield of a type used by Italian ecclesiastics. It is divided 👄 in five vertical stripes: two white stripes and three black stripes, inside which are the following elements, while in its 👄 upper section the name of the society superimposed on a white convex section, over golden curvature (gold for honour). The 👄 white silhouette of a charging bull is in the lower section of the oval shield, superimposed on a black old 👄 French shield and the charging bull is a symbol of the comune of Turin. There is also a black silhouette 👄 of a mural crown above the black spherical triangle's base. This is a reminiscence to Augusta Tourinorum, the old city 👄 of the Roman era which the present capital of Piedmont region is its cultural heiress. In January 2024, president Andrea 👄 Agnelli announced the change to the Juventus badge for a logotype. More specifically, it is a pictogram composed by a 👄 stylized Black and White "J" which Agnelli said reflects "the Juventus way of living."[159] Juventus was the first team in 👄 sports history to adopt a star as a symbol associated with any competition's triumph, who added one above their badge 👄 in 1958 to represent their tenth Italian Football Championship and Serie A title, and has since become popularized with other 👄 clubs as well.[160]

In the past, the convex section of the emblem had a blue colour (another symbol of Turin) and 👄 it was concave in shape. The old French shield and the mural crown, also in the lower section of the 👄 emblem, had a considerably greater size. The two "Golden Stars for Sport Excellence" were located above the convex and concave 👄 section of Juventus's emblem. During the 1980s, the club emblem was the blurred silhouette of a zebra, alongside the two 👄 golden stars with the club's name forming an arc above.

Juventus unofficially won their 30th league title in 2011–12, but a 👄 dispute with the FIGC, which stripped Juventus of their 2004–05 title and did not assign them the 2005–06 title due 👄 to their involvement in the Calciopoli scandal, left their official total at 28; the club elected to wear no stars 👄 at all the following season.[161] Juventus won their 30th title in 2013–14 and thus earned the right to wear their 👄 third star, but Agnelli stated that the club suspended the use of the stars until another team wins their 20th 👄 championship, having the right to wear two stars "to emphasise the difference".[162] For the 2024–16 season, Juventus reintroduced the stars 👄 and added the third star to their jersey as well with new kit manufacturers Adidas, in addition to the Coppa 👄 Italia badge for winning their tenth Coppa Italia the previous season.[163] For the 2024–17 season, Juventus re-designed their kit with 👄 a different take on the trademark black and white stripes.[164] For the 2024–18 season, Juventus introduced the J shaped logo 👄 onto the kits.[165]

In September 2024, Juventus officially announced a new project called JKids for its junior supporters on its website. 👄 Along with this project, Juventus also introduced a new mascot to all its fans which is called J. J is 👄 a cartoon-designed zebra, black and white stripes with golden edge piping on its body, golden shining eyes, and three golden 👄 stars on the front of its neck.[166] J made its debut at Juventus Stadium on 12 September 2024.[167]

During its history, 👄 the club has acquired a number of nicknames, la Vecchia Signora (the Old Lady) being the best example. The "old" 👄 part of the nickname is a pun on Juventus which means "youth" in Latin. It was derived from the age 👄 of the Juventus star players towards the middle of the 1930s. The "lady" part of the nickname is how fans 👄 of the club affectionately referred to it before the 1930s. The club is also nicknamed la Fidanzata d'Italia (the Girlfriend 👄 of Italy), because over the years it has received a high level of support from Southern Italian immigrant workers (particularly 👄 from Naples and Palermo), who arrived in Turin to work for FIAT since the 1930s. Other nicknames include [la] Madama 👄 (Piedmontese for Madam), i bianconeri (the black-and-whites), le zebre (the zebras)[j] in reference to Juventus's colours. I gobbi (the hunchbacks) 👄 is the nickname that is used to define Juventus supporters, but is also used sometimes for team's players. The most 👄 widely accepted origin of gobbi dates to the fifties, when the bianconeri wore a large jersey. When players ran on 👄 the field, the jersey, which had a laced opening at the chest, generated a bulge over the back (a sort 👄 of parachute effect), making the players look hunchbacked.[168]

The official anthem of Juventus is Juve (storia di un grande amore), or 👄 Juve (story of a great love) in English, written by Alessandra Torre and Claudio Guidetti, in the version of the 👄 singer and musician Paolo Belli composed in 2007.[169] In 2024, a documentary film called Black and White Stripes: The Juventus 👄 Story was produced by the La Villa brothers about Juventus.[170] On 16 February 2024, the first three episodes of a 👄 docu-series called First Team: Juventus, which followed the club throughout the season, by spending time with the players behind the 👄 scenes both on and off the field, was released on Netflix; the other three episodes were released on 6 July 👄 2024.[171] On 25 November 2024, an eight-episode docu-series called All or Nothing: Juventus, which followed the club throughout the season, 👄 by spending time with the players behind the scenes both on and off the field, was released on Amazon Prime.[172]

Stadiums

After 👄 the first two years (1897 and 1898), during which Juventus played in the Parco del Valentino and Parco Cittadella, their 👄 matches were held in the Piazza d'Armi Stadium until 1908, except in 1905 (the first year of the scudetto) and 👄 in 1906, years in which they played at the Corso Re Umberto.

From 1909 to 1922, Juventus played their internal competitions 👄 at Corso Sebastopoli Camp before moving the following year to Corso Marsiglia Camp, where they remained until 1933, winning four 👄 league titles. At the end of 1933, they began to play at the new Stadio Benito Mussolini inaugurated for the 👄 1934 World Championships. After the Second World War, the stadium was renamed as Stadio Comunale Vittorio Pozzo. Juventus played home 👄 matches at the ground for 57 years, a total of 890 league matches.[174] The team continued to host training sessions 👄 at the stadium until July 2003.[175]

From 1990 until the 2005–06 season, the Torinese side contested their home matches at Stadio 👄 delle Alpi, built for the 1990 FIFA World Cup, although in very rare circumstances the club played some home games 👄 in other stadia such as Renzo Barbera at Palermo, Dino Manuzzi in Cesena and the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan.[175]

In 👄 August 2006, Juventus returned to play in the Stadio Comunale, then known as Stadio Olimpico, after the restructuring of the 👄 stadium for the 2006 Winter Olympics onward. In November 2008, Juventus announced that they would invest around €120 million to 👄 build a new ground, the Juventus Stadium, on the site of delle Alpi.[176] Unlike the old ground, there is not 👄 a running track and instead the pitch is only 7.5 metres away from the stands.[4] The capacity is 41,507.[4] Work 👄 began during spring 2009 and the stadium was opened on 8 September 2011, ahead of the start of the 2011–12 👄 season.[177] Since 1 July 2024, the Juventus Stadium is known commercially as the Allianz Stadium of Turin until 30 June 👄 2030.[178][179]

Supporters

Juventus is the most-supported football club in Italy, with over 12 million fans or tifosi, which represent approximately 34% of 👄 the total Italian football fans according to a research published in September 2024 by Italian research agency Demos & Pi,[22] 👄 as well as one of the most supported football clubs in the world, with over 300 million supporters (41 million 👄 in Europe alone),[23] particularly in the Mediterranean countries to which a large number of Italian diaspora have emigrated.[180] The Torinese 👄 side has fan clubs branches across the globe.[181]

Demand for Juventus tickets in occasional home games held away from Turin is 👄 high, suggesting that Juventus have stronger support in other parts of the country. Juventus is widely and especially popular throughout 👄 mainland Southern Italy, Sicily and Malta, leading the team to have one of the largest followings in its away matches,[182] 👄 more than in Turin itself.

Club rivalries

Scene from the Derby d'Italia in 1930

Juventus have significant rivalries with two main clubs.

Their traditional 👄 rivals are fellow Turin club Torino; matches between the two sides are known as the Derby della Mole (Turin Derby). 👄 The rivalry dates back to 1906 as Torino was founded by break-away Juventus players and staff.

Their most high-profile rivalry is 👄 with Inter, another big Serie A club located in Milan, the capital of the neighbouring region of Lombardy. Matches between 👄 these two clubs are referred to as the Derby d'Italia (Derby of Italy) and the two regularly challenge each other 👄 at the top of the league table, hence the intense rivalry.[183] Until the Calciopoli scandal which saw Juventus forcibly relegated, 👄 the two were the only Italian clubs to have never played below Serie A. Notably, the two sides are the 👄 first and the third[184] most supported clubs in Italy and the rivalry has intensified since the later part of the 👄 1990s; reaching its highest levels ever post-Calciopoli, with the return of Juventus to Serie A.[183]

The rivalry with AC Milan is 👄 a rivalry between the two most titled and supported[185] teams in Italy.[186] The challenge confronts also two of the clubs 👄 with greater basin of supporters as well as those with the greatest turnover and stock market value in the country.[187][non-primary 👄 source needed] The match-ups between Milan and Juventus, is regarded as the championship of Serie A, and both teams were 👄 often fighting for the top positions of the standings, sometimes even decisive for the award of the title.[188] They also 👄 have rivalries with Roma,[189] Fiorentina[190] and Napoli.[191]

Youth programme

The Juventus youth set-up has been recognised as one of the best in 👄 Italy for producing young talents.[192] While not all graduates made it to the first team, many have enjoyed successful careers 👄 in the Italian top flight. Under long-time coach Vincenzo Chiarenza, the Primavera (under-19) squad enjoyed one of its successful periods, 👄 winning all age-group competitions from 2004 to 2006. Like Dutch club Ajax and many Premier League clubs, Juventus operates several 👄 satellite clubs and football schools outside of the country (i.e. United States, Canada, Greece, Saudi Arabia, Australia and Switzerland) and 👄 numerous camps in the local region to expand talent scouting.[193] On 3 August 2024, Juventus founded their professional reserve team, 👄 called Juventus U23 (renamed to Juventus Next Gen in August 2024),[194] playing in Serie C,[195] who won the Coppa Italia 👄 Serie C in 2024.[196] In the 2024–22 UEFA Youth League, the U19 squad reached the semi-finals, equalling the best-ever placing 👄 in the competition for a Serie A team.[197]

The youth system is also notable for its contribution to the Italian national 👄 senior and youth teams. 1934 World Cup winner Gianpiero Combi, 1936 Gold Medal and 1938 World Cup winner Pietro Rava, 👄 Giampiero Boniperti, Roberto Bettega, 1982 World Cup hero Paolo Rossi and more recently Claudio Marchisio and Sebastian Giovinco are a 👄 number of former graduates who have gone on to make the first team and full Italy squad.[198]
