Juve with Chiellini, Barzagli and Bonucci: what they will do between management and field

The lady dusts off the BBC. Not on the field, even if Igor Tudor would be comfortable for Udinese, but to reinforce Juventus at all levels. Fascinating project: Juve to Juventusians and who wrote recent history such as Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci and Andrea Barzagli. Legendary and super scudetted trio. From players they compensated, one close to the other, transforming the tactical intuition of Antonio Conte (2011-12) into a collection of trophies. Now the idea on the high floors of Juventus is to restore the Juventus DNA by bringing the legendary trio back to “home”. If Chiellini – the “C” of the BBC – has already embraced the club and the property is entrusting him with ever greater responsibilities, for the two “B” we think more technical roles. For Bonucci, the youngest of the three and the last to close with football played in 2024, one thinks of a place in the new staff of the first team. All the more so if the dream of reporting Antonio Conte on the bench was realized. In Barzagli, however, Juventus would gladly entrust the guidance of a team of the nursery. Gathering the trio is more than a suggestion. Some chat has already been and the scenario intrigues. Question of Juventinity, but also of values. The first card (Chiellini) advanced, work to complete the puzzle.

Barzagli, Bonucci and Chiellini worked – and won – to Juventus because they are strong, with human and technical values ​​and with different characteristics. And the same could happen in their second black and white. Giorgio, after the running -in as manager of the club’s institutional relations, will have more weight in Juventus decisions, also in those of the sports area: he will increasingly support the Cristiano Giuntoli DT. Barzagli and Bonucci, on the other hand, are seen on the bench. So Juventus would be happy to embrace two other fundamental men both on the field and in the locker room in the past. Chiellini knows well, who shared everything with Andrea and Leonardo, but the thickness of the two “B” of the BBC is also known on the upper floors of the company and John Elkann himself.

In the footsteps of Antonio

–

Bonucci – 8 badges with Juventus, like Barzagli – closed his career between Berlin and Istanbul in 2024. Just a few months of vacation and then immediately determined to build a path in stages with the aim of becoming top also as a coach. “My dream is to arrive sooner or later on the Juve bench,” he explained several times. More or less what Antonio Conte said when he stopped playing and the apprenticeship began: from the Siena staff to the B to the series championships. Even Leo is not in a hurry: he wants to take the right and gradual steps, also because he has recently stopped and in this first phase of the post career he does not intend to get too far from his wife Martina and children, in love with Turin. This year Bonucci started his second life from the staff of Italy under 20 of the coach Bernardo Corradi, of which he is a technical collaborator, learning a lot and taking away a lot of satisfaction. At Juventus, even for a matter of heart, he would struggle to say no regardless and in particular if he was the church mentor who proposed a role in his working group. But the idea could take altitude in any case. The same goes for Barzagli, back from the experience in Maurizio Sarri’s staff at Juventus (2019-20) and from the most recent one as a commentator for Dazn. The former number 15 last summer had decided to train starting from the Fiorentina nursery. In the end nothing was done and Andrea lived a sabbatical year. The temptation to test themselves as a youth technician resists and Juventus would be ready to open the door of the house.
