Summary

edit

The bianconero club saw a moving summer due to disagreements between Juventus chairman and manager Carver, who exploded in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport just before the preseason in August, demanding the selling of the Hansen brothers, John and Præst, and buying Benito Lorenzi from Inter. The response of chairman Gianni Agnelli was the dismissal of the English manager. The team new replacement was Hungarian György Sárosi, with contract in the United States until December; meanwhile, Gianpiero Combi and Luigi Bertolini were interim managers.[1][2][3]

During the Serie A season, Hansen scored 30 goals, earning him the "Capocannoniere" Italian top goal-scorer title, along with the squad reaching a massive total of 98 goals scored and helping Juventus to win its 9th domestic title.
