Stadium Project

The project for the new Juventus stadium was presented to the town council last night. Conceived by the Gau and Shesa studios, the arena has been designed for usage throughout the week, and not just on match days. The existing Delle Alpi structures to be maintained are those below a height of 18 metres, that is the foundation installation, while everything visible to the public will be brand new, with the exception of the pillars positioned around the two curved ends which have become something of a symbol of the stadium.

This decision was taken for a number of reasons, among them rejuvenation of the surrounding area and consistency with the innovative structures built for the 2006 Winter Olympics, as well as the need to match the necessary criteria for hosting games at the 2012 European Championships, including the quarter finals, and compliance with the government’s bill on stadiums.

"A new stadium for a great Juve"

In an interview with Juventus Channel recorded at the end of Monday’s board meeting, Giovanni Cobolli Gigli spoke at length about the stadium project, a subject which is more pertinent than ever in light of the debate following the events in Catania. “Juventus already had plans to renovate the Delle Alpi and when the new board came in, we reassessed the project with the Italian bid for the 2012 European Championships - and consequently the city of Turin - in mind. We decided to go for an innovative stadium project providing joie de vivre and a safe environment for families and commercial activities which will see it being used up to seven days a week”.

This will be a new Delle Alpi, taking the place of the existing structure built for the 1990 World Cup. It’s an ambitious project and another step forward for Juventus in their bid to return to the very highest levels: “Having navigated our way through troubled waters –the chairman continued – we’re now on the right track to returning to Serie A in the very near future. Our development project plans for Juventus to be competitive again in no time at all, first in Italy and then in Europe, and the stadium is a fundamental part of this. People need to rediscover the joy of going to the stadium, because there’s nothing like the emotion of a live game”.

Rediscovering the joy of going to the stadium is even more important in the days following the tragedy in Catania, an event which has cast doubt over Italy being awarded the 2012 European Championships. Cobolli Gigli still believes in the image of this country: “Of course we haven’t given a great account of ourselves and our ability to organise stadiums and sporting events. I support the call for urgent changes to be made to increase the quality of life in Italian stadiums and I believe it would be wrong to miss out on this opportunity to show Europe and the world just what Italy is capable of”.

Stadium project presented to the FIGC

Juventus managing director Jean-Claude Blanc and chairman Giovanni Cobolli Gigli presented the project for the new stadium to FIGC (Italian football federation) commissioner Luca Pancalli this morning in Rome. It was a cordial affair in which Pancalli expressed his appreciation for the work carried out by Juventus in recent months. As well the architectural quality of the project, he also praised the interpretation of football which the proposed stadium would embody. The project for the new stadium should be added to the dossier for Italy’s bid for Euro 2012 which the federation is due to submit on the 15th February.

The club have confirmed that the development of the new stadium project depends on whether Italy is awarded Euro 2012 and whether the government offers the necessary financial guarantees.

I believe there will still be some redevelopment, just not as much.

I can see a few thousand seats being removed but not much else.

Lincoln · 24-04-2007, 12:41 PM

Juve prepare stadium plans Friday 16 November, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Juventus President Giovanni Cobolli Gigli has promised that the Bianconeri will announce the plans for their new stadium within the next six weeks.

The Old Lady are currently sharing the Stadio Olimpico - which played host to last year’s Winter Olympics - with city rivals Torino.

“We are working towards a new stadium and a decision will be made in a month or maybe a month and a half,” Cobolli Gigli told the Juventus Channel.

“We will have a new home and it will be a stadium only for the Bianconeri, which will contain action, sporting and non-sporting, seven days a week.”

The Cadetti champions are in third place after returning to the top flight this term and the mood at the club is positive.

“The Coach and the technical staff are still looking to get the best out of the squad, but in the meantime we are getting excellent results anyway,” the Juve chief beamed.

“We are still to show the true strength of this squad because the new players are settling in with the old faces and the young talents.

“If it weren’t for some dubious refereeing decisions we would be very close to Inter.

“In any case we are at the top and we have the advantage of not playing in any Cup competitions.”

Juve's Delle Alpi conundrum Tuesday 19 February, 2008

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Juventus have a big choice to make for the redevelopment of the Stadio Delle Alpi – they must decide between a restructuring and a complete rebuild.

The Bianconeri have purchased the stadium from Turin council for around £16m and will submit plans for their new home by the start of April.

Old Lady director Jean-Claude Blanc met with local authorities this morning to discuss the club’s options.

“I can’t discuss figures publicly because of the club’s position on the stock market,” he told journalists.

“But the cost of a total rebuild would be around five times greater than a restyling.

“We are weighing things up as well because with Italy having missed out on Euro 2012 there won’t be the offer of an interest-free loan.

“In any case we will make an important investment without endangering the fund for strengthening the squad.”

A restructuring would see the distance between the stands and the pitch reduced with a 50,000-capacity stadium ready for the 2009-2010 campaign.

A total rebuild would require a much longer waiting period and would lead to a 40,000-seater arena opening at the beginning of the 2011-2012 season.
