The meeting arranged by Figc between Serie A teams’ executives and the Uefa President Michel Platini took place yesterday afternoon at the Hotel Parco dei Principi in Rome. They addressed several matters: from the financial fair play to the initiatives against violence, racism and corruption, from the future of European competitions to the Uefa strategies in view of the next four years presidency (2011 - 2015) for which Platini is the only candidate. Juventus President Andrea Agnelli and MD-sports GM Giuseppe Marotta attended the meeting.
After the conference, the latter spoke to media about Juventus condition and targets: «The title? Football is so changeable, but our main object is to qualify for the next Champions League, as already stated at the beginning of this season. Actually, it depends on our opponents’ progress, not only on our squad. The championship is still quite balanced. The difference consists in crucial scorers and, unfortunately, we suffered from many injuries, like that occurred to Fabio Quagliarella. Intervening in the transfer market? We won’t just go through the motions of doing operations, even because now there are no important names suitable for Juventus».
Asked about Del Piero’s contract renewal, Marotta responded that: «Alessandro is a real legend in Juventus, a serious professional who earned the club’s and supporters’ respect. We will deal with this topic as soon as possible».
Finally, about Calciopoli, he said that: «Juventus rely on sports justice. We hope that a deep and accurate verification of the events could be carried out, because there is still a vague situation. We also hope that the solution will be achieved quite quickly».
