Juventus visits Frosinone

Juventus, who finished sixth last season, 18 points behind Inter, are aiming for a positive start as they kick off their campaign against hosts Frosinone tomorrow in the opening round of the Italian Serie A.

The most decorated club in Italy, whose last of 36 titles dates back to 2020, has carried out a wide-ranging overhaul within its ranks. It dismissed French general manager Damien Comolli after just one year, parted ways with Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic, who was the highest-paid player in Serie A, and terminated the contract of Brazilian midfielder Arthur.

Nevertheless, the club spent more than 40 million euros ($47 million) to sign French forward Randal Kolo Muani.

As has been the case in recent years, AC Milan attempted another revolution by changing its manager, this time by appointing Portuguese coach Ruben Amorim, alongside restructuring its sports management. The club also paid 74 million euros ($86 million) to sign Portuguese striker Goncalo Ramos from French club Paris Saint-Germain.

For American owner Jerry Cardinale, whose pressure from fans is mounting day by day, any result short of qualifying for next season’s Champions League would be considered a failure.
