John Elkann, CEO of Exor and majority shareholder of Juventus, spoke to Reuters about the club’s current direction, future ambitions, and the recent involvement of Tether, which has acquired an 11% stake in the Bianconeri.
“Juventus Is Not for Sale”
Elkann made it clear that Exor’s connection with Juventus remains rock solid. “We remain fully committed to Juventus and are proud to have been its controlling shareholder for more than a century,” he stated, shutting down any speculation about an eventual sale of the club.
“Open to Constructive Ideas”
The Exor chief also addressed the arrival of Tether in Juventus’s shareholder structure. “We are, and have always been, open to constructive ideas from all stakeholders who share our ambition and passion for the club,” Elkann said, expressing openness to further collaboration with the new investor.
“Strong Results and Financial Discipline”
Looking ahead, Elkann reiterated Exor’s dual objective — sporting success alongside financial stability. “We support the new board of directors and management team, as our priority remains to combine strong sporting results with financial discipline,” he explained.
