On the pages of La Stampa, Antonio Barillò commented on Fabio Paratici’s farewell to Juventus: “It ends here, after eleven unforgettable years. Or perhaps after two contradictory seasons. Because it is right to remember the 19 trophies won by Fabio Paratici, but also consider that 16 he shared them with Beppe Marotta, the man who “invented” him at Sampdoria and wanted him at Juventus. As long as he was able to deal exclusively with scouting, sensing talents and seducing champions, everything went perfectly, because the ‘experience, diplomacy, the mentor’s knowledge of football completed and enhanced his work. When he was alone, in 2018, everything changed: his vocation as a man of the field, proud to hike like in the past, ended up being prove to be a limit in the broader managerial role, orienting, between undeniable merits, errors of assessment, instinctive choices, rigidities “.
