Juventus legend Alessandro del Piero open to working role

Juventus legend Alessandro del Piero admits he'd like to work for the club.

Del Piero says he retains affection for Juve.

And explained to Corriere della Sera: "Through my journey, for all the years in which we shared so many joys and also the darkest moment of Serie B, I have built a special relationship with Juventus.

"Not only because I support Juventus, but because nineteen years is really a long time.

"People ask me: 'Why don't you return to Juve?'. I reply that I must not return, because I never left. When you spend a lot of time and many experiences in a community the roots sink into the ground.

"Ok, today I'm not working there, that's fine - maybe things will change in the future, who knows? - but I will never feel distant. An important part of my heart is there. And it will always be. Always on the same side."
