Alessandro Nasi, is he the successor of Andrea Agnelli at the helm of Juventus? His name has rebounded in the media in the days that see the current Juventus president in evident difficulty over the Superlega affair.


Someone, dusting off the Manzoni, could have said: Alexander Nasi, who was he? Until a few days ago Alessandro Nasi was a well-known name above all among the professionals in the economic - financial field. At most it could be a familiar name to those who chew gossip, given that he is the current partner of Alena Seredova, ex wife of Gianluigi Buffon. But now his name is known by all because it is associated with a sensational succession. According to many, he will be the new president of Juventus. We'll see.

Everyone already seems to have forgotten the great period that Juventus experienced under the presidency of Andrea Agnelli. Everyone, at this moment, seems to want to present the account of his mistakes to the Juventus president. The Superlega and the sinking of the project of the 12 European Top Clubs which would have meant also and, above all, giving breath to the corporate coffers. On which corporate coffers the arrival of the Portuguese champion had a decisive impact Cristiano Ronaldo.

Purchased to aim to win the Champions League, Cristiano Ronaldo had to be the one who should have made the dream come true. The Portuguese champion has done his duty and even more. What was missing was the outline. A team that often, in the decisive games, has shown that it is not up to its symbolic player. Thus, in the last two seasons there have been two scorching eliminations in the round of XNUMX of the Champions League with opponents that a Juventus normal he would have swallowed up in one gulp.

Those lost revenues, combined with the heavy economic consequences that even the world of football has had to suffer due to the Covid - 19 pandemic, have brought the accounts of Juventus to a point of no return. The colossal engagement of Cristiano Ronaldo could only be justified and supported by large revenues. Missing those, everything risks collapsing. An immediate change of pace is needed, which can begin with a change at the top of the company and / or with the entry into the company of a new shareholder. We'll see.

Who is Alessandro Nasi?

Born and raised in Turin, Alessandro Nasi graduated in Economics and then embarked on a professional training and skills consolidation path in the United States, where he lived for a long time. Nasi has years of experience on Wall Street, has worked for major investment banks. In more recent times, was compared to Ferrari. Today Nasi is president of Comau, a robotics industry that is part of the group stellantis. He is vice president of Exor, the Italian holding of the Agnelli family.

What would his Juventus be like?

If the choice of ownership of Juventus, or of Exor, or of Jaki Elkann, fell on the figure of Alessandro Nasi, the company he chaired would have completely different connotations from the previous one. Trusted men by Andrea Agnelli like Pavel nedved o Fabio Paraticiprobably would not find a place in the new organization chart of the new president. At the moment there are no names of who, possibly, could take over from the outgoing executives. 

Andrea Agnelli's Juventus confirmed, if needed, that nothing is improvised and that seriousness and competence are always a guarantee of results. Andrea Agnelli - Pavel Nedved - Joseph Marotta–Fabio Paratici - with Antonio Contebefore and Massimiliano Allegri later in the role of coaches, they were an important, close-knit and competent work group. Having sent Giuseppe Marotta away was the first of the few great mistakes of the president Andrea Agnelli

That operation was probably the beginning of the end. Juventus continued to win because they had accumulated such an advantage over other Italian clubs that the victories came almost by inertia. This year, however, Juventus will not win their tenth consecutive Scudetto, as it was in the dreams of President Agnelli. The Scudetto will go elsewhere. Giuseppe Marotta and Antonio Conte are elsewhere e elsewhere they will win the Scudetto. In sport as in life, the right choices they always pay, as well as mistakes yes they always pay.

At this moment the discussion on who will be the new Juventus president is absolutely secondary to the central problem that concerns and will shortly concern the Juventus club. The team will have to be refounded, as well as part of the management cadres. Who will choose who? With what money? Is it conceivable to still insist on the Cristiano Ronaldo project? Wouldn't Massimiliano Allegri's possible return to the bench be an explicit admission that serious management and choice mistakes have been made in the last two years? The questions are many, but perhaps, at the moment, there is no one who is able to give certain answers.
