Alessandro Del Piero, the legendary former captain of Juventus, made a special appearance at the Allianz Stadium in Turin for the match between Juventus and Bologna. The game, part of the fifteenth round of Serie A, was graced by the presence of the iconic number 10 who left an indelible mark on the club’s history.
Del Piero’s return to what was once his home turf created a stir among the fans. As soon as he was spotted in the stands, the supporters seized the opportunity to pay homage to their beloved captain. Half an hour before kick-off, the stadium erupted with the familiar chant: “There’s only one captain,” directed at the former Juventus star.
Currently working as a TV pundit, Del Piero’s name has recently been circulating in connection with the presidency of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC). The 2006 World Cup winner has been proposed as a potential candidate for the role currently held by Gabriele Gravina.
