'Juventus Football Club' (from
Latin[The name "Juventus" is a literal license in Piedmontese dialect of the Latin substantive ''iuventus'' (''youth'' in English language).] ''iuventus'': ''youth'',
IPA: ), also known as 'Juventus Turin' (or 'Juventus Torino'), 'Juventus', or simply 'Juve', is a
football club from
Turin,
Italy. With the exception of one season,
[1] the club has spent its entire history in the
top flight of Italian football.
[2] After winning
Serie B, Juventus were promoted back to Serie A for the 2007–08 season.
Juventus is the
most successful[1] team in the history of
Italian football. Overall, Juventus have won 51 official trophies, more than any other Italian team; 40 in Italy, which is also a record, and 11 in European and world competitions, where is the third club from
Europe[4] and fifth in the world
[4] with the most international titles recognized by
UEFA[6] and
FIFA.
In 1985, Juventus, the only team in the world to have won all international cups and championships
[6] (which includes all official European competitions
[6] and the Intercontinental Champions Clubs' Cup
[Up until 2004, the main FIFA football competition for clubs was the Intercontinental Champions Club' Cup (so called ''European / South American Cup''); since then, it has been the ''FIFA World Club Championship''.]), became the first club in the history of European football to have won all three ''Major European trophies''
[9].
The torinese team is also one of the
G-14’s founding members, a group that represents eighteen of the largest and most prestigious
[10] European football clubs.
At present, Juventus play their home games at the
Stadio Olimpico di Torino while their full-time stadium,
Stadio delle Alpi is having structural changes and will not be completed for use until
2008.

History
:''For more details on this topic, see
History of Juventus F.C.''
Historic first ever Juventus club shot in 1898.
Juventus were founded as 'Sport Club Juventus' in late 1897 by pupils from the
Massimo D'Azeglio Lyceum school in
Turin,
[ History of Juventus ] but were renamed as 'Football Club Juventus' two years later.
[11] The club joined the
Italian Football Championship during 1900, wearing their original pink and black kit. Juventus first won the league championship in
1905 while playing at their ''
Velodromo Umberto I'' ground and wearing their famous black and white stripes.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ]
There was a split at the club in 1906, after some of the staff considered moving Juve out of Turin.
[12] President Alfredo Dick was unhappy with this and left with some prominent players to found
FBC Torino which in turn spawned the ''
Derby della Mole''.
[13] Juventus spent much of this period steadily rebuilding after the split, surviving the
First World War.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ]
League dominance
Fiat owner
Edoardo Agnelli gained control of the club in
1923, building a new stadium.
[ Presidenti ] This helped the club to their second league championship by the
1925–26 season beating
Alba Roma with an aggregate score of 12–1,
Antonio Vojak's goals were essential that season.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] The 1930s proved to be even more fruitful, the club won five consecutive league titles from
1930 through to
1935, most were under coach
Carlo Carcano[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] with star players such as
Raimundo Orsi,
Luigi Bertolini,
Giovanni Ferrari and
Luis Monti amongst others.
Juventus had a new ground in the form of the ''
Stadio Comunale'', though for the rest of the 1930s and the majority of the 1940s they were unable to recapture championship dominance. After the
Second World War,
Gianni Agnelli was put in place as honorary president.
[ Presidenti ] The club added two more scudetto championship's to their name in the
1949–50 and
1951–52 seasons, the latter of which was under the management of Englishman
Jesse Carver.
.jpg)
First club to win ten Italian Championships.
Two new strikers were signed during
1957–58, in the form of Welshman
John Charles and Italo-Argentine
Omar Sivori, playing alongside longtime member
Giampiero Boniperti. That season saw Juventus awarded with the ''
Golden Star for Sport Excellence'' to wear on their shirt after becoming the first Italian side to win ten league titles. In the same season, Omar Sivori became the first ever player at the club to win the
European Footballer of the Year.
[ European Footballer of the Year ("Ballon d'Or") ] The following season they beat
Fiorentina to complete their first league and cup double, winning
Serie A and
Coppa Italia. Boniperti retired in 1961, he retired as the all-time top scorer at the club, with 182 goals in all competitions; a club record which would last for 45 years.
[ Del Piero is the hero again ]
For the rest of the decade the club won the league just once more in
1966–67,
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] However, the 1970s would see Juventus further solidify their strong position in Italian football. Under former player
ÄŒestmÃr Vycpálek they won the ''scudetto'' in
1971–72 and
1972–73,
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] with players such as
Roberto Bettega,
Franco Causio and
José Altafini breaking through. During the rest of the decade they won the league two more times, with defender
Gaetano Scirea contributing significantly. The latter of which was won under
Giovanni Trapattoni, the man who would help the club's domination continue on in the early part of the
1980s.
[ Campionato Serie A - Albo D'oro ]
European stage
The Trapattoni-era was highly successful in the 1980s, the ''Old Lady'' started the decade off well, winning the league title three more times by 1984.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] This meant Juventus had won 20 Italian league titles and were allowed to add a second golden star to their shirt, thus becoming the only Italian club to achieve this.
[ Campionato Serie A - Albo D'oro ] Around this time the club's players were garnering attention on a large scale;
Paolo Rossi was made
European Footballer of the Year and had led Italy to victory in the
1982 FIFA World Cup.
[14]
Frenchman
Michel Platini was also awarded the European Footballer of the Year title for three years in a row; 1983, 1984 and 1985, which is a record.
[ European Footballer of the Year ("Ballon d'Or") ] Juventus are the only club to have players from their club winning the award in four consecutive years.
[ European Footballer of the Year ("Ballon d'Or") ] Indeed it was Platini who scored the winning goal in the
1985 European Cup final against
Liverpool, however this was marred by a tragedy which would change European football; the
Heysel Stadium disaster, in which 39 people (mostly Juventus fans) were killed by the stadium collapsing, it has been named "the darkest hour in the history of the
UEFA competitions."
[15]
With the exception of winning the closely contested Italian Championship of
1985–86, the rest of the 1980s were not very successful for the club. As well as having to content with
Diego Maradona's Napoli, both of the Milanese clubs
Milan and
Inter won Italian championships.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] In 1990, Juventus moved into their new home; ''
Stadio delle Alpi'' which was built for the
1990 World Cup.
[16]
The Lippi era
Marcello Lippi took over as Juventus manager at the start of the
1994–95 campaign.
[17] His first season at the helm of the club was a successful one, as Juventus recorded their first
Serie A championship title since the mid-
1980s.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] The crop of players during this period featured
Ciro Ferrara,
Roberto Baggio,
Gianluca Vialli and a young
Alessandro Del Piero. Lippi lead Juventus to the
Champions League the following season, beating
Ajax on penalties after a 1–1 draw in which
Fabrizio Ravanelli scored for Juve.
[18]
The club did not rest long after winning the European Cup, more highly regarded players were brought into the fold in the form of
Zinédine Zidane,
Filippo Inzaghi and
Edgar Davids.
[19] At home Juventus won Serie A in
1996–97 and
1997–98, as well as the
European Super Cup. Juventus reached the
1997 and
1998 Champions League finals during this period, but lost out to
Borussia Dortmund and
Real Madrid respectively.
[20]
After leaving for a brief season, Lippi returned, signing big name players such as
Gianluigi Buffon.
[21],
David Trézéguet,
Pavel Nedvěd and
Lilian Thuram, helping the team to two more ''scudetto'' titles in the
2001–02 and
2002–03 seasons.
[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ] Juventus were also part of an all Italian Champions League final in
2003 but lost out to
AC Milan on penalties after the game ended in a 0–0 draw. The following year, Lippi was appointed as
Italy's head coach, bringing an end to one of the most fruitful managerial spell in Juventus' history.
[ Campionato Serie A - Albo D'oro ]
Recent times
Fabio Capello became manager of Juventus in 2004, and lead Juventus to two more Serie A titles. But during
May 2006, Juventus were one of four clubs linked to a
Serie A match fixing scandal, the result of the scandal saw the club relegated to
Serie B for the first time in their history, as well as being stripped of the two titles won under Capello.
[22]
Many key players were sold, however, other big name players remained to help the club return to Serie A. The season was notable because
Alessandro Del Piero broke club records, by becoming the first Juventus player to appear 500 times in all competitions for the club.
[ Del Piero: 500 times Juve! ] The ''bianconeri'' were promoted straight back up as league winners after the
2006–07 season. For their return to Serie A in the
2007–08 season former
Chelsea manager
Claudio Ranieri is at the helm of ''the Old Lady''.

[ Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio - La Storia 1898-2004, , Panini Edizioni, Modena, , 2005, ]
The ''Old Lady'' holds the record for the most goals in a single season, in the top flight of Italian football, this includes national league, national cup and European competition, with a total of 106 goals in the
1992–93 season. The sale of
Zinédine Zidane to
Real Madrid of
Spain from Juventus in 2001, set the current
world football transfer record for the most expensive deal, costing the Spanish club around £46 million.
[28]
Colours, badge and nicknames
Juventus have played in black and white striped shirts, with white shorts, sometimes black shorts since 1903. Originally, they played in pink shirts with a black tie, the father of one of the players made the earliest shirts, but continual washing faded the colour so much that in 1903 the club sought to replace them.
[ Black & white – A design for life ]
Juventus asked one of their team members, Englishman John Savage, if he had any contacts in England who could supply new shirts in a colour that would better withstand the elements. He had a friend who lived in Nottingham, who being a
Notts County supporter, shipped out the black and white striped shirts to Turin.
[ Black & white – A design for life ]
Juventus F.C. crest in
2004
Juventus Football Club’s official emblem has undergone different and small modifications since the
second decade of twentieth century. The last modification of the ''Old Lady''’s badge took place in
2005. At the present time, the emblem of the team is conformed to a black-and-white
oval shield; a type of Italian shield specially used by ecclesiastics, it is divided in five vertical stripes: two white stripes and three black stripes, inside of this are the following elements; in its superior section, the name of the society superimposed a white
convex section, over golden curvature (gold for
honour). The white silhouette of a
charging bull is in the inferior section of the oval shield, superimposed a black
old french shield; the charging bull is a symbol of the ''
Comune di
Torino''. There is also a black silhouette of a
mural crown above the black spherical triangle’s base is a reminiscence to "Augusta Tourinorum", the old city of the
Roman era which the present
capital of Piedmont region is its cultural heiress.
In the past, the convex section of the emblem had a blue colour (another symbol of Turin) and, furthermore, its shape was
concave. The old french shield and the mural crown, also in the inferior section of the emblem had, considerably, a greater size with respect to the present. The two ''
Golden Stars for Sport Excellence'' were located above the convex & concave section of the Juventus’ emblem. During the
1980s, the club emblem was the silhouette of a
zebra, to both sides of the
equide’s head, the
two golden stars and, above this badge, forming an
arc, the clubs name.
During its history, the club has acquired a number of nicknames, ''la Vecchia Signora''
[29] (the Old Lady) being the best example. The "old" part of the nickname is a pun on Juventus which means "youth" in
Latin [The name "Juventus" is a literal license in Piedmontese dialect of the Latin substantive ''iuventus'' (''youth'' in English language).]. It was derived from the age of the Juventus' star players towards the middle of
1930s. The "lady" part of the nickname is what fans of the club referred to it as affectionately prior to the 1930s. The club is also nicknamed ''la Fidanzata d'Italia'' (the Girlfriend of Italy), because over the years they have received a high level of support from
Southern Italian immigrant workers (particularly from
Naples and
Palermo), who arrived in
Turin to work for
Fiat since the
1930s. Other nicknames include; ''
i bianconeri'' (the black-and-whites) and ''le zebre'' (the
zebras
[30]) in reference to Juventus' colours.
Supporters and rivalries
Main articles: Juventus Ultras
Juventus is the most well supported football club in
Italy with over 11 million fans (31% of Italian football fans, according to the Doxa Institute-L'Expresso’s research of April 2006
[31]), and one of the most supported football clubs in the world, with approximately 21 million supporters in Europe alone.
[32] The ''Old Lady'' has fan clubs all over the world outside of Italy, from places as far apart as
Malta,
[33] England,
[34] Iran,
[35] Greece,
[36] Israel,
[37] Vietnam,
[38] Hungary[39] and many more.
[40]
Despite this strong support, attendances at Juventus home matches average about 35,000; much less than other highly renowned European teams. Contrastingly, demand for Juventus tickets in occasional home games held away from
Turin is high; suggesting that Juventus have stronger support in other parts of the country. Juve is widely and especially popular throughout
Southern Italy, leading the team to have one of the largest followings in its away matches
[41]) than Turin itself. A large portion of Juventus fans in Turin do not attend the games and rather watch the games on TV, because of the conditions at
Stadio delle Alpi; this is largely due to the running track which makes the pitch a long distance from the stands, work is ongoing to fix this problem.
[42]
Juventus ultras have good relationships with
Piacenza,
Ado Den Haag and
Legia Warsaw fans and have several rivalries, two of which are highly significant.
[43] The first is with local club
Torino, they compete in the ''
Derby della Mole'' (Derby of Torino) together; this rivalry dates back to
1906 when Torino was founded by former Juve members. The other most significant rivalry is with
Internazionale; matches between Juventus and Inter are referred to as the ''
Derby d'Italia'' (Derby of Italy). Up until the
2006 Serie A match-fixing scandal, which saw Juventus relegated, the two were the only Italian clubs to have never played below
Serie A. Notably the two sides are the most supported in Italy, the rivalry has intensified since the later part of the
1990s.
[44]
Notable ''Old Lady'' supporters are the
spinto tenor Luciano Pavarotti, the French racing driver
Jean Alesi, the
prelate of the
Roman Catholic Church Tarcisio Bertone, the
singer and
songwriter Eros Ramazzotti and the
Mayor of Rome Walter Veltroni.
