Sassuolo Star Carnevali Takes Juventus CEO Reins
12 Jun
Summary
- Giovanni Carnevali hired as Juventus CEO and general manager.
- Damien Comolli departs Juventus by mutual agreement.
- Carnevali was instrumental in Sassuolo's Serie A success.
Juventus has appointed Giovanni Carnevali as its new CEO and general manager, following the mutual agreement to end Damien Comolli's tenure. Carnevali, 65, brings a wealth of experience, having been a pivotal leader in Sassuolo's rise and sustained presence in Serie A since 2014.
Carnevali expressed honor and pride in joining Juventus, stating his commitment to ensuring the club remains a leading force nationally and internationally. His appointment follows a challenging season for Juventus, which concluded with a sixth-place finish in Serie A, securing a Europa League position.
The club's decision to part ways with Comolli, who had been in the role for just one season, reportedly stems from disagreements with coach Luciano Spalletti regarding player transfers and unsatisfactory team performances in Serie A and European competitions.
