CAIRO – 13 December 2017: Juventus targeted the Champions League title as a main goal this season, according to a statement by Andrea Agnelli, the team’s president, after the team has achieved the Serie A title for six consecutive seasons.
“Legendary pages have been written, but now the horizons must widen,” Agnelli said at the club’s Christmas party.
“We have not one, but two, monkeys on our back; we know that. And we know that our objectives and our horizons must broaden. The horizon is Europe; we care about that,” Agnelli added.
Juventus has failed to achieve the Champions League title since 1996. It starred in the last version, but lost to Real Madrid in the final.
“Being the Juventus president means having the sweet obsession with victory,” Agnelli said.
“Results like those we have achieved and that we want to continue to obtain are the result of work, because talent is not enough,” he added.
Juventus faces Tottenham in the Champions League round of 8.
