Sport-Club Juventus was established as an athletics club, but two years later, they changed their name to Foot-Ball Club Juventus. In 1900, the team entered the Italian Football Championship. It is the country’s second-oldest of its kind still in use.
In 1905, Juventus became the first team to win the league championship. In 1906, there was a schism within the club after some of the workers proposed relocating Juve from Turin. After the break, Juventus spent most of this time slowly rebuilding and surviving the First World War.
Juventus’ dominance in Italian football became much stronger in the 1970s. They won the scudetto in 1971–72 and 1972–73 under former player estmr Vycpálek. Giovanni Trapattoni, who also led the club to their first ever European Cup victory in 1977, was in charge of the later victory. In 2004, Fabio Capello was named as Juventus’ coach, and he led the club to two more Serie A titles in a row.
Juventus went undefeated in Serie A for the entire 2011–12 season under Conte’s leadership. Juve has had a historic streak of four consecutive doubles and nine consecutive league titles since 2011.
Juventus Football Club is Italy’s most famous football club, thanks to a long list of iconic players who have played for the club. Zinedine Zidane is a name that requires no introduction, and he has spent a significant amount of time with Juventus.
Platini is widely regarded as one of Europe’s greatest players of all time. He was already a well-known player who had previously represented Juventus. Gigi Buffon, widely regarded as the greatest goalkeeper of all time, is the pinnacle of career longevity, having spent his entire career with Juventus.
Alessandro Del Piero is the Juventus’s best player of all time. He is Juventus’ all-time leading goal scorer (290 goals) and the player with the most appearances (705) in the club’s history.
The A.C. Milan–Juventus F.C. rivalry is a football rivalry between Italy’s two most successful teams. Two of the teams with the largest fan bases are also up against the challenge. The matches between Juventus and Milan are known as the Serie A championship, and both teams have often battled for the top spots in the standings. Juventus is leading the charts with 109 wins against 95 of AC Milan.
