Juventus a club with rich history and heritage. Many great players have played for this
club, the likes of Michel Platini, Zinedine Zidane, Pavel Nedved, Fabio Cannavoro, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, David Trezeguet, Del Piero, Gianluigi Buffon and many more. The black and white strip
have been formidable in the past few years in the domestic league, having won
the Serie A three years consecutively, not done by any other team in the
Italian League. The most dominant club in Italy having won the domestic league
an astonishing 30 times.
Yes
the club has had its downfall when it was relegated to the second division
(Serie B) in 2006 for the match fixing scandal they were involved in. But a lot
has changed since that event. In the past few years, they have once become that
dominant side they always were. Opposition tremble at the sight of facing this
club. With quality players being brought in to make the club even stronger and
dominant, likes of Carlos Tevez, Andrea Pirlo , Paul Pogba, Arturo Vidal and more.

Juventus started to look like its best when Antonio Conte took charge of the Turin
club. Winning the Serie A in his debut season as head coach of the side and
from that point things never really looked back for Juventus. Winning the
Scudetto with an astonishing unbeaten season, the second club to achieve this
feat in the Italian League, the first being AC Milan in the 1991-1992 season,
and from there on the team started get stronger and stronger and in the
2013-2014 season they won the Scudetto with a record of 102 points, and after
doing the treble of Scudetto’s with Juventus Conte stepped down as head coach
for the Club from Turin to take on more bigger responsibilities by becoming the
head coach for the national side Italy.
With
Conte stepping down, there would have been a sense of anxiety for the Juventus
fans with who the new coach was going to be, and also if the new coach could
pick up from where the previous coach Conte had left off. With Massimiliano
Allegri being appointed to replace Conte and deliver the same results that
Conte was delivering to the Juventus supporters and management before he
stepped down. But many would not have been convinced with that decision because
Massimiliano Allegri had a dismal season as head coach for AC Milan, but to
everyone’s surprise Allegri has done a fantastic job picking up exactly from
the previous coach and maintaining the momentum and looks like Juventus are
heading on course to create history and win another Scudetto, Being the first
club in the Italian League to win the domestic league titles four times in a
row.
With
their continued dominance being witnessed in the Italian League, the challenge
would be for the Turin club to conquer and dominate the European stage and with
how the club has progressed over the past few years it’s only a matter of time
they start to create and break records in the European stage.
