In addition to the financial statements as of June 30, 2026, which revealed Juventus’ violation of UEFA financial fair play rules and some details about Giuntoli’s dismissal and Comolli’s hiring, the Bianconeri club, in anticipation of the next shareholders’ meeting on November 7, has announced the lists submitted for the election of board members. These are those of the majority shareholder, Exor, and the second shareholder, the cryptocurrency company Tether.

Among Exor’s candidates (9 in total) is Gianluca Ferrero, who will therefore be confirmed as chairman, and, for the first time, Damien Comolli, who will take on the role of CEO. Joining them are Antonio Belloni (Chairman of LVMH Italia), Guido de Boer (CFO of Exor since 2022), Laura Cappiello (Of Counsel of BonelliErede’s Legal Risk, Compliance & Investigation practice), Fioranna Vittoria Negri (Chartered Accountant and Statutory Auditor), Kerstin Andrea Lutz (CEO of the Billie Jean King Cup tennis tournament), Diva Moriani (President of KME Group Spa), and Diego Pistone (CFO of Finde Spa). Giorgio Chiellini is not among the candidates for the board of directors, as he will be increasingly involved in representing Juventus in national and international institutions.
Maurizio Scanavino, CEO, is also not present and, as expected, will leave his position at the end of his term. “Juventus, in the person of President Gianluca Ferrero and on behalf of the entire Board of Directors, thanks Scanavino for his passionate and dedicated work over the years, laying solid foundations for the start of a new phase of growth,” said the club in its farewell message. “We wish Maurizio every success in his future professional endeavors.” Scanavino, in turn, had these words of farewell: “Three years ago, I accepted this prestigious position at an extremely critical time for the club, one that was not without risks for those who would have the responsibility of leading it. The goal was clear: to embark on a path based on economic sustainability and sporting competitiveness. With the support of the owners, administrators, and talented colleagues, we faced and overcame numerous challenges with determination, despite the difficulties,“ the soon-to-be former CEO said on Juventus’ official website. ”I will always carry with me the memory of unique emotions, experienced and shared with the players, coaches, sporting directors, and all the staff. These moments will remain indelible. Today more than ever, I look to the future of Juventus with great confidence: I am sure that there will be other important pages to write.” Juve board of directors, the Tether list—  The other list presented is that of the cryptocurrency company Tether, which holds approximately 11.5% of the share capital and, at this point, being the only alternative list, will elect a representative to the board of directors.
