If Matteo Tognozzi were to indeed return to Juventus FC, his role would be much more central and strategic than the one he held between 2017 and 2023 as chief scout.
In addition to likely replacing Modesto as the liaison between management and the team, Tognozzi would also have a significantly more influential and decisive role in transfer market decisions, sharing responsibility and vision with Giorgio Chiellini and Matteo Ottolini, assuming the current structure is confirmed. And right now, at Juventus, nothing can be taken for granted.
We'll find out later what the official titles and the definitive structure of the new sporting area will be, but one thing is clear: Tognozzi's deep knowledge of Juventus' DNA and culture would be enormously valuable.
After years of revolutions, managerial changes, and constant project resets, Juventus needs above all stability, identity, and true footballing expertise. And in this sense, Tognozzi's return could become a crucial piece in finally building a solid and lasting technical project.
We'll see what happens in the coming weeks, but his return would be welcomed with great enthusiasm by much of the Juventus club.
