'Togetherness' Essential For Juventus Triumph, Asserts Motta
Thiago Motta emphasises that unity is crucial for a successful debut season as Juventus' head coach. The former Bologna manager began his pre-season preparations in Turin on Monday. Juventus secured third place in Serie A last season, trailing Scudetto winners Inter by 23 points. Despite this gap, they earned a Champions League spot after a one-season ban due to financial fair play violations.
Thiago Motta believes that togetherness is the key to enjoying a successful first season in charge of Juventus. The former Bologna manager arrived in Turin for his first day of pre-season on Monday. Juventus finished third in Serie A last season but were 23 points behind Scudetto winners, Inter. However, they did secure a return to the Champions League after serving a one-season suspension from UEFA after breaking financial fair play regulations. Now, Motta is setting his sights on getting Juve back to the top.
In his initial interview with Juventus' official channels, Motta expressed his enthusiasm for the new role. "I've found myself in a really wonderful place to work," he said. "It goes without saying at such a historic club that, together, we can do a great job." His comments reflect his belief that collective effort will be pivotal for success.
Motta acknowledges the challenges ahead but remains optimistic about the opportunities. "It will certainly be a demanding season," he noted, "but at the same time, it's wonderful to be able to play so many matches." He added that their goal is to participate in as many games as possible, indicating strong performance and progress.
The new coach also extended warm greetings to Juventus supporters, expressing eagerness to connect with them both at home and away matches. "I send [the Juventus fans] fond greetings," he said, "and I hope to be able to meet you soon, in our stadium and in other grounds." He assured fans of the team's commitment on the field.
Motta's vision includes not just winning but also making fans proud of their team’s efforts and achievements. "We will certainly give everything on the pitch so that together we can all be proud of this team," he affirmed. This message underscores his focus on building a strong bond between the team and its supporters.
