The central defender therefore wants to file a claim for damages against Juventus due to inadequate training and preparation conditions. The Bonucci side sees this as a professional disadvantage and damage to its image. However, Bonucci’s decision does not represent a personal war against the Turin team; rather, the 121-time Italian national player is concerned with a fundamental decision for footballers in similar situations.

Bonucci was excluded from the squad by Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri this summer and a year before his planned retirement. The reports say that the situation was abnormal for the veteran. Bonucci had to train at different times than his teammates in the evening, without ever seeing the coaching team. In addition, the defender was not given access to the fitness room, swimming pool or dining room.

Union newcomer Bonucci sees Juventus’ approach as a deliberate strategy

Bonucci has the feeling that he was intentionally left alone by the club’s decisions, which he sees as a deliberate strategy to force a farewell – which ultimately happened. Juventus let Bonucci move to Union on a free transfer; according to reports, the former captain’s high salary, which is said to have amounted to around 12 million euros gross in Turin, will be divided between the clubs.

Bonucci actually wanted to hang up his football boots at Juventus, for which he appeared on the field 502 times and where he is one of the top 10 players in the record list. Now the liaison will probably end badly in court – Bonucci doesn’t want to make any profit from it. The media writes that Bonucci plans to donate any compensation from this case to charity. In Italian football there have recently been repeated allegations of bullying against players such as Nicolò Zaniolo (24; AS Roma), Federico Bonazzoli (26; US Salernitana) and Gianluigi Donnarumma (24; AC Milan), but legal action has been taken against the clubs none.

In Germany, every professional footballer has the right to take part in the training of the professional team – if a player has been rejected by the team, a special trainer must be assigned for this purpose. It must also be ensured that players have the opportunity to apply existing and trained skills in a qualified game.
