A member of the industrialist Agnelli family, he was a board member of Stellantis and Exor. Appointed to the UEFA Executive Committee in 2015, Agnelli served as executive member and chairman of the European Club Association from 2017 to 2021,[13] when he resigned to join the European Super League project.[14][15]
Early life and ancestry
Agnelli is the son of late Juventus chairman and senator Umberto Agnelli, CEO of FIAT from 1970 to 1976, and Donna Allegra Caracciolo di Castagneto (born 1945), first cousin of Marella Agnelli (1927–2019), born Donna Marella Caracciolo di Castagneto and daughter of Filippo Caracciolo, 8th Prince di Castagneto, 3rd Duke di Melito, and a hereditary patrician of Naples (1903–1965), and his wife, Donna Anna Visconti di Modrone (1903–1977). Along with Marella, widow of his uncle Gianni Agnelli, and Allegra, he is descendants of an old Neapolitan noble family that held the titles of Prince of Castagneto and Duke of Melito, among others. He was the last male member of the family to carry the Agnelli surname until the birth of his son Giacomo.[16][17] Agnelli studied at St Clare's, Oxford, and then at Bocconi University in Milan.[18]
Career
During and after university, Agnelli started his career in the business world, including abroad in England and France at companies Iveco, Auchan Hypermarché, and back in Italy at Milan with Piaggio. He also spent several years in Switzerland working in marketing and development for Ferrari Idea S.A., where in 1999 he started his career, London-based Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, and Lausanne-based Philip Morris International from 2001 to 2004, where he was first in charge of marketing and sponsorships and then of external institutional communication. In November 2000, Agnelli moved to Paris to take on marketing responsibility for Uni Invest SA, a Sanpaolo IMI company specialising in the offer of asset management products. By 2005, he was back in Turin at IFIL.[19] In 2007, he set up his own financial holding company, Lamse.[20] He also cultivated his passion for golf, becoming managing director of the Royal Park Golf & Country Club I Roveri in 2008.[21][22] On 29 September 2008, he was appointed federal councilor of the Italian Golf Federation.[23] Together with Michele Dalai and Davide Dileo, he founded the publishing house ADD Editore in 2010.[24] He is on the advisory board of BlueGem Capital Partners LLP,[25] and he is also the president of the Piedmont Foundation for Oncology.[26][27]
During his career, Agnelli maintained ties with the Fiat world. From 2005 to 2006, he held strategic development positions within IFIL, which he left in 2007 to found Lamse.[28][29] On 30 May 2004, he became a board member of Fiat S.p.A.,[30] a position that he kept in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) since 12 October 2014;[19] starting from 17 January 2021, with the merger between FCA and Groupe PSA and appointed by Exor, he became a non-executive director for a four-year term of the newly formed Stellantis.[31][32] Since 25 May 2006, he was also a director of the Industrial Financial Institute, which later became Exor, the company controlling the interests of the Agnellis.[33][34] In January 2023, Agnelli announced his resignation from the position in Stellantis,[35] effective at the close of the 2023 annual general meeting of shareholders,[36][37] and that he would not reapply for the role in Exor.[38][39][40] He remained on the board of Giovanni Agnelli B.V.[41][42]

In May 2010, Agnelli was appointed chairman of the board of directors of Juventus by his first cousin John Elkann, becoming the fourth member of the Agnelli family to run the football club after his father, his uncle, and his grandfather.[18] Elkann and the previous management under Giovanni Cobolli Gigli and Jean-Claude Blanc, had come under criticism from Juventus fans for the club's poor results during the 2009–10 Serie A,[43] and many Juventus ultras saw Agnelli as the rightful heir due to his family's long-time association with the club. Despite entering the job during a period when the club was still dealing with the aftermath of the controversial Calciopoli scandal,[44][45][46] he is credited with overseeing the club's transition into the Juventus Stadium and balancing their finances in wake of the late-2000s recession in Europe.[47][48] One of his first acts as new chairman was to appoint Sampdoria duo Giuseppe Marotta as director of sport and Luigi Delneri as new coach.[49][50][51]
On 22 May 2011, Agnelli appointed as the new coach Antonio Conte, former Juventus captain and fan favourite who had called him to propose himself for the role,[52][53][54] replacing Delneri after another disappointing season and seventh place in the league,[55] which precluded the club from any UEFA competition and was not acceptable for Agnelli, whose motto was "Playing for Juventus, working for Juventus, one goal: to win".[56] That same season under Conte, Juventus were undefeated and won the first scudetto under Agnelli.[57] Since becoming chairman, Juventus won nine scudetti in a row,[58] a record in Serie A, including five Coppa Italia titles,[59] of which four in a row since the 2014–15 Coppa Italia, five Supercoppa Italiana titles,[60] and reached two UEFA Champions League finals in 2015 and 2017.[61]
Juventus F.C.

Agnelli inherited from his family the passion for Juventus, within which he began to collaborate from the 1998–99 Serie A season as an assistant in the commercial sector.[62] On 19 May 2010, he was elected chairman of the club;[63][64][65] after forty-eight years of absence, he is the fourth member of the Agnelli family, after his grandfather Edoardo, his uncle Gianni, and his father Umberto, to hold this position.[18]
Under his mandate from the 2010s, the Juventus team established a victorious cycle, during which they won the Italian football championship for nine consecutive Serie A seasons; they broke an eighty-two years record of five consecutive league wins, which was first achieved by Juventus under Agnelli's grandfather, and established a new national record with nine consecutivi scudetti.[66] Among these stand out in particular the 2011–12 Serie A,[67] which was won undefeated,[57] the 2013–14 Serie A, which concluded with a record of 102 points,[68][69] and the 2015–16 Serie A, which was won after an unprecedented comeback in the standings;[70][71][72] in the same period, Agnelli's Juventus set a further record of four consecutive domestic doubles,[73] and achieved one UEFA Europa League semifinal in 2014,[8] as well as two UEFA Champions League finals;[74][75] the club also narrowly missed, not without controversy, the Champions League semifinals, first in 2016,[76] and then in 2018.[61]
On the sporting side, the Agnelli presidency included the expansion and modernisation of the club's property portfolio from the Juventus Stadium,[77][78] the J-Museum,[79][80] the J-Hotel,[81][82] the J-Medical,[83] and the J-Village complexs,[84][85] to the J new company logo,[86] The Agnelli management established the second men's team, Juventus U23,[87][88][89] which won the 2019–20 Coppa Italia Serie C and was renamed Juventus Next Gen in August 2022,[90] and the first women's team, Juventus Women,[91] the latter of which immediately became multi-titled and became the first team to achieve a perfect season in 2020–21,[92] and pushed for the entry of the club into the world of electronic sports.[93][94][95] On the management side, after having promoted turnaround management through a renewal process aimed at overcoming the financial crisis in which the club had been stagnating for some years, he led Juventus to achieve results never before achieved in the economic sphere by an Italian football club.[96]
In regards to sports policy, Agnelli took a tougher position than that of the previous Juventus management,[97] led by Giovanni Cobolli Gigli and subsequently by Jean-Claude Blanc,[98] in the aftermath of the post-Calciopoli.[99][100] After being absolved as a club in the first justice proceedings,[101] the Calciopoli trials that came during Agnelli's presidency confirmed the acquittal for the club,[102][103] which was not liable by other Italian football clubs,[104] because the 2004–06 leagues were regular.[105][106][107] This led to a dispute between Juventus, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC), and Inter Milan,[108] the club that controversially received the 2006 scudetto but was later charged of sporting illicit when it was time-barred by the statute of limitations in 2011; citing disparità di trattamento (disparity of treatment),[109] Juventus asked the two scudetti back and sued the FIGC for €443 million for damages caused by their 2006 relegation. Then-FIGC president Carlo Tavecchio offered to discuss reinstatement of the lost scudetti in exchange for Juventus dropping the lawsuit.[110] Nonetheless, Agnelli was also the promoter of what was widely labelled "the table of peace" of the 2010s.[111] Juventus continued to present new appeals for the two scudetti and the FIGC's damage claims;[112] these appeals were declared inadmissible mostly by competence purposes.[113]
In September 2012, Agnelli became the Italian member of the European Club Association (ECA).[114] On 24 July 2014, he became the director of the Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A,[19] and was nominated to be board member of the Foundation for General Mutuality in Professional Team Sports.[115] He initially said he would retire his Lega Serie A candidacy if Tavecchio was elected FIGC president.[116] On 8 September 2015, Agnelli was reelected as a member of the ECA executive board. He was also appointed by the executive board to join the UEFA Executive Committee on behalf of the association to represent its 220 member clubs alongside reelected chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge for 2015–17.[117][118][119] He was reelected in 2019.[120][121] In April 2021, Agnelli resigned from his positions as ECA chairman and UEFA Executive Committee to become a vice-chairman of The Super League, a company established with the aim to create the European Super League, an independent European football competition;[122] this project, which was strongly opposed by UEFA,[123] placed Agnelli with Joan Laporta of Barcelona and Florentino Pérez of Real Madrid, the three remaining main supporters of the Super League, in contrast with the continental football confederation.[124]
In April 2022, the FIGC's Federal court acquitted Juventus and other clubs regading the Plusvalenze (capital gains) Serie A scandal.[125][126][127] Ahead of the 28 October 2022 shareholders' meeting, he wrote a letter saying that "the 21–22 financial year should be the last year in which we record direct impacts due to the pandemic ... . Juventus means competing at a high level for victory, every day and in every competition. Victory is a goal to which Juventus naturally aspires and every effort of all the men and women of Juventus will be directed towards victory, starting from the ongoing season. ... the economic-financial balance, that we lost during the pandemic years, must return to drive the club's strategic choices."[128] On 28 November 2022, Agnelli resigned as chairman of the Juventus,[129] amid a sporting trial regading the Plusvalenze scandal,[130][131][132] which in the case of Juventus represented 3.6% of the club's revenues during the investigated period,[133] related to the 2019–21 years, after the capital gains case was reopened.[134][135][136] In the following weeks, he remained in office in prorogatio, which ended on 18 January 2023, and was succeeded by Gianluca Ferrero.[137][138] He said that football is not economically sustainable and expressed his hope that the European Court of Justice would change its regulations.[139][140][141] In thirteen seasons, Agnelli won 19 trophies with the first men's team, 10 with the first women's team, and one with the second men's team,[78][142] which made it the most titled management in Juventus history.[143]
Legal issues
In 2014, some of Juventus' senior management, including Agnelli, were investigated by the public prosecutor's office of Turin on the management of tickets at the Juventus Stadium about the alleged infiltration of the 'Ndrangheta in the commercial management of the company's tickets, which Agnelli denied;[144] the public ministers of Turin did not formalise criminal charges against Juventus or its members,[145] closing the investigation three years later with a filing request as there were no links between the Juventus management and the groups and/or individual people involved in organised crime.[146] In 2016, prosecutor Ciro Santoriello acquitted Juventus and Agnelli of false accounting charges related to the 2015–16 years; not finding any irregularity, he dismissed the case.[147] On 18 March 2017, following the opening of a lawsuit by Giuseppe Pecoraro from the Turin Public Prosecutor's Office, Agnelli was referred by the FIGC's Attorney General along with three other club executives.[148] On 15 September, the FIGC reformulated its allegations, excluding a presumed Mafia association from the members of the incriminated club after Pecoraro's intervention to the Antimafia Commission in April;[149] the prosecutor asked for sanctions for the meetings of Agnelli with ultra groups and the sale of the tickets by the rest of the offenders beyond the limit allowed per person, which favoured ticket scalping.[150] On 25 September, Agnelli was banned for one year and fined €20,000, while Juventus were fined €300,000 for selling tickets to ultras; alleged connections to organised crime were not present in the ruling.[151] On 18 December, Agnelli's ban was lifted; he was required to pay a €100,000 fine, while the fine against Juventus doubled to €600,000.[152]
On 20 January 2023, Agnelli was suspended for two years from holding office in Italian football as punishment for capital gain violations, amid the Plusvalenza scandal and the reopened Prisma case,[153] which started in November 2021;[154][155] a preliminary hearing for the Prisma case is scheduled for March 2023.[156] Juventus were docked 15 points,[157][158][159] which was unprecedented,[160] and was harsher than the point deduction recommended by the FIGC prosecutor,[161][162] who said that in the standings Juventus "must now finish behind Roma, outside the European competitions zone".[163] Juventus denied any wrongdoing,[164] and announced their intention to appeal against the FIGC's ruling to the Sport Guarantee Board of the Italian Olympic Committee, Italy's highest sporting court, which was made official on 30 January.[165] Citing the Calciopoli unequal treatment, the club lawyers issued a statement reading that the sentence "constitute a clear disparity of treatment against Juventus and its managers compared to any other company or member. We consider this to be a blatant injustice also for millions of fans, which we trust will soon be remedied in the next court."[166] In a precedent case dating back to 2008 involving the 2004 budgets of Inter Milan and Milan, they were acquitted because "the fact does not constitute a crime",[167] while Cesena were docked 3 points after repeated infrigiments of regulations in 2018.[168] Further controversy ensued when videos of Santoriello, Prisma prosecutor, mocking Juventus emerged.[169][170] In a 2019 conference,[171] he said: "I admit that I am a big Napoli fan and I hate Juventus. As a fan, the important thing is Napoli. As a prosecutor I am obviously anti-Juventus, against the thieves on the pitch, and (yet) I had to write case dismissed."[172] This prompted a reaction, among others, from the Italian Sports Minister, Andrea Abodi.[173][174]

Personal life
On 27 August 2005, Agnelli married Emma Winter in a Roman Catholic ceremony in Villar Perosa, Piedmont, at the church of San Pietro in Vincoli. The wedding reception was held at Villa Agnelli, Donna Marella Agnelli's estate in Villar Perosa.[181] The couple have two children: Baya Agnelli (born on 24 May 2005 in Turin) and Giacomo Dai Agnelli (born on 16 December 2011 in Turin).[182][183] After the end of this marriage, Agnelli has been engaged to the Turkish former model Deniz Akalin since 2015.[184] On 22 April 2017, the couple had a daughter, who was named Livia Selin.[185][186]

Among the most notable teams involved in the breakaway group is Juventus, the serial Italian champion. Its chairman, Andrea Agnelli, had been until Sunday — when he resigned from both posts — a member of UEFA's executive board and also the head of the European Club Association, an umbrella body for more than 200 top division clubs, the majority of which will be left out of the proposed Super League.

The Juventus defence, among other things, objects that a sum of several Articles 1 (unfair and dishonest sporting conduct) cannot lead to an indictment for Article 6 (sporting offence), using for example the metaphor that so many defamations do not carry a murder conviction: an unimpeachable objection. ... Hence the grotesque concept of 'standings altered without any match-fixing'. The 'Calciopoli' rulings state that there is no match-fixing. That the league under investigation, 2004–2005, is to be considered regular. But that the Juventus management has achieved effective standings advantages for Juventus FC even without altering the individual matches. In practice, Juventus was convicted of murder, with no one dead, no evidence, no accomplices, no murder weapon. Only for the presence of a hypothetical motive.

FIGC's actions in relegating Juventus and handing the title to Inter Milan were somewhat peculiar. Of course, Moggi and Juventus deserved punishment; that is not up for dispute. However, the severity of the ruling and the new location for the Scudetto was unprecedented and arguably should never have happened. The final ruling in the Calciopoli years later judged that Juventus had never breached article 6. As a result, the Serie A champions should never have encountered a shock 1–1 draw away to Rimini in the season's curtain-raiser. Nor should they have trounced Piacenza 4–0 in Turin or handed a 5–1 thrashing away to Arezzo in Tuscany. The findings stated that some club officials had violated article 6, but none had originated from Juventus. FIGC created a structured article violation with their decision-making. This means that instead of finding an article 6 breach, several article 1 violations were pieced together to create evidence damning to warrant relegation from Italy's top flight. Article 1 violations in Italian football usually command fines, bans, or points deductions, but certainly not relegation.

... the motivations in 558 pages are summarized as follows. 1) Leagues not altered (therefore leagues unjustly taken away from Juve...), matches not fixed, referees not corrupted, investigations conducted incorrectly by the investigators of the Public Prosecutor's Office (interceptions of the Carabinieri which were even manipulated in the confrontation in the Chamber). 2) The SIM cards, the foreign telephone cards that Moggi has distributed to some referees and designators, would be proof of the attempt to alter and condition the system, even without the effective demonstration of the rigged result. 3) Moggi's attitude, like a real 'telephone' boss, is invasive even when he tries to influence the [Italian Football Federation] and the national team, see the phone calls with Carraro and Lippi. 4) That these phone calls and this 'mafia' or 'sub-mafia' promiscuity aimed at 'creating criminal associations' turned out to be common practice in the environment as is evident, does not acquit Moggi and C.: and therefore here is the sentence. ... Finally point 1), the so-called positive part of the motivations, that is, in fact everything is regular. And then the scandal of 'Scommettopoli' [the Italian football scandal of 2011] in which it's coming out that the 2010–2011 league [won by Milan] as a whole with tricks is to be considered really and decidedly irregular? The Chief Prosecutor of Cremona, Di Martino, says so for now, while sports justice takes its time as always, but I fear that many will soon repeat it, unless everything is silenced. With all due respect to those who want the truth and think that Moggi has objectively become the 'scapegoat'. Does the framework of information that does not investigate, analyse, compare, and take sides out of ignorance or bias seem slightly clearer to you?

Juventus have been acquitted, the offending leagues (2004/2005 and 2005/2006) have been declared regular, and the reasons for the conviction of Luciano Moggi are vague; mostly, they condemn his position, that he was in a position to commit a crime. In short, be careful to enter a shop without surveillance because even if you don't steal, you would have had the opportunity. And go on to explain to your friends that you're honest people after the morbid and pro-sales campaign of the newspapers. ... a club has been acquitted, and no one has heard of it, and whoever has heard of it, they don't accept it. The verdict of 2006, made in a hurry, was acceptable, that of Naples was not. The problem then lies not so much in vulgar journalism as in readers who accept the truths that are convenient. Juventus was, rightly or wrongly, the best justification for the failures of others, and it was in popular sentiment, as evidenced by the new controversies concerning 'The System.' But how? Wasn't the rotten erased? The referees since 2006 make mistakes in good faith, the word of Massimo Moratti (the only 'honest'). ... it isn't a question of tifo, but of a critical spirit, of the desire to deepen and not be satisfied with the headlines (as did Oliviero Beha, a well-known Viola [Fiorentina] fan, who, however, drew conclusions outside the chorus because, despite enjoying it as a tifoso, he suffered as a journalist. He wasn't satisfied and went into depth. He was one of the few).

Justice decided that Moggi and Giraudo actually 'polluted' the system, it decided so in 2006 and did not want to know or understand other truths. Indeed, it had already decided it during the investigations, when all the phone calls that could exonerate or alleviate the position of Juventus' executives had not been taken into consideration, to the point of dismantling the very concept of the Cupola. Moggi and Giraudo, therefore, 'polluted' the system: a term that serves to dodge the fact that no judge has ever returned enough evidence to affirm that the league (the subject of investigation was only 2004–05) has actually been altered. Indeed, in the first instance sentence we basically read the opposite.

It's important to stress that there was no admission of guilt. The club merely stated that it was 'considered to be in the best social interest to recommend that Juventus equip itself with a new board of directors to address these issues'. In a statement sent to all members of staff, outgoing president Agnelli wrote: 'When the team is not united, then that opens the way for opponents to hurt you and that can be fatal. In that moment, you must have the sharpness of mind to contain the damage: we are facing a delicate moment as a club and that unity is lost.

The public prosecutor's office allegedly exceeded the time limit for presenting the request. As emerged from press articles, the public prosecutor's office had contacted the Turin prosecutors on 26 October and on 27 October the news of a visit to Turin by a prosecutor's envoy had spread. So the first new facts would have come into the possession of the prosecution at the end of October.

'Juventus Football Club and its legal team have carefully read and will analyse thoroughly the reasons, published a little while ago, of the decision of the United Sections of the Federal Court of Appeal. It is a document, predictable in content, in the light of the weighty decision, but vitiated by obvious illogicality, lack of motivation and unfoundedness in point of law, which the Company and the individuals will oppose with an appeal to the Guarantee College at CONI within the set deadlines.

Thirteen years after the acquittal of the Milanese [clubs], the investigation brings back the age-old question of capital gains in the offices of a prosecutor, just as [FIFA president] Infantino, only a couple of weeks ago, hypothesised the introduction of a mathematical algorithm to decide the player rating.

Did the 'attention' that Ciro Santoriello, the prosecutor of the Juventus capital gains investigation, dedicated to the Juventus club derive only from his in-depth investigative activity, or also from an atavistic personal and sporting hatred for the Old Lady?
