Interview with Financial Times per Andrea Agnelli, the first after the Super League chaos and the farewell to Juventus due to the capital gains chaos, with the first words dedicated precisely to the project of the new European championship which was born and died within 48 hours, given that some clubs first joined and then joined stand back: “I didn’t put a gun to anyone’s head. They all signed freely. Some were more conscious. But they all signed freely.” Then also words about Financial Fair Play: “This was a response to the problems that football has had and continues to have: financial instability, financial sustainability, polarization”.
Can the relationship with Ceferin be rebuilt?
“My feeling is that time is a gentleman. And things will probably, hopefully, eventually work out. If not, again, my conscience is super clear.”
Was hiring Ronaldo a mistake?
“It was a good move. Give me Ronaldo and let me field him without a pandemic, it’s another story.”
The capital gains case?
“I remain convinced that everything we did, we did according to the rules, according to financial standards.”
Does the financial problem in football exist?
“Since it transformed from a game into a business, football has not evolved its governance to govern the business. It is fair to say that most clubs lose money. Yes? Either we are all incompetent or the system has some shortcomings.”
