According to the "Milan Sports" report, Juventus owner Elkan has notified sports director Jontoli in person that he was fired by the club.
In the short holiday before the Club World Cup, Juventus management will usher in a major change: Juventus sports director Jontoli, his two assistants Giuseppe Pompilio and Stefano Stefanelli will be fired. Although Juventus struggled to qualify for the Champions League next season in the final round, this did not save Jontoli, who would end in just two years of his time at Juventus.
"Milan Sports" said that Jontoli has spent more than 200 million euros to sign ups at Juventus, but the results are not ideal. Jontoli also sold some very promising new stars, especially Wyson's departure made Juventus very regretful. Moreover, Juventus was eliminated by Eindhoven in the Champions League this season and by Empoli in the Italian Cup. These are things that Juventus boss Elkan cannot accept. In addition, in order to pay compensation for the firing of former coach Mota, Elkan had to inject 15 million euros into Juventus club in March.
Elkan has decided to turn a new page. Elkan and Jontoli had an interview this Thursday morning. The atmosphere was very tense. Elkan informed Jontoli in person that he had been fired, which was a heavy blow to Jontoli. Afterwards, Jontoli did not represent Juventus at the commemoration of the Heisel tragedy as planned, because the official reason was "family factor". Elcan, Juventus chairman Ferrero, CEO Maurizio Scanavino, Chiellini and other Juventus management teams attended the event.
Next Comoli will serve as Juventus general manager, and he will be responsible for the club's sports work with Chiellini. In addition, Juventus CEO Maurizio Scanavino is also an important member of the management. He was an accountant and a close confidant that Elkan trusted. Comoli and Chiellini will discuss the future of the team in Turin early next week.
In addition, Matteo Tognozi may also return to Juventus for office. Matteo Tognozi has served as the first scout of Juventus youth team and the first scout of the first team, and has discovered new stars such as Wysen, Sulei, and Ilditz. He previously left the company and went to Granada to serve as club director and is now expected to return to Juventus.
