John Elkann hopes for a great season for Juventus, but the Bianconeri owner also recognises that the team is being rebuilt and that patience is required.
The men at the Allianz Stadium have not won the league since 2020, and they have gone through several managers over the last six seasons in their efforts to return to the top.
Juventus Aim to Return to the Top
Along the way, Juventus have made several mistakes, which is why it appears they have had to begin another rebuild every summer. The men at the Allianz Stadium have continued to show that they can improve on their previous efforts as they attempt to restore the club to its former position.
Luciano Spalletti has been given the opportunity to win his second Scudetto crown as a coach, and the club is backing him with as many quality players as possible.
Juventus have some of the best players in the league within their squad, and they expect a better end to the season than they enjoyed last term. Spalletti knows that much more is expected from him and his team, and the manager will feel pressure to meet those expectations.
Elkann Urges Patience During Rebuild
However, Elkann believes Juventus are currently in a rebuilding phase and that the club must recognise the nature of football cycles. He also stressed the importance of returning to winning ways in both Italy and Europe.
He said via Calciomercato:
“We need to start winning, because winning brings increasingly important results both in Italy and in Europe. This year it will be important to carry out all the commitments we have, keeping in mind that football is made up of cycles and we are in a phase of reconstruction today, but we also have the awareness that everyone at Juventus is determined to carry it forward with the aim of bringing this club back to the top.”
Elkann’s comments underline the club’s desire to compete at the highest level while acknowledging that the rebuilding process will require time. Juventus will hope Spalletti can guide the team towards a stronger campaign and help them take another step towards returning to the top.
